Please return to the My Info screens 

  1. Click edit next to your name. 
  2. For the state of residence, choose the correct state from the dropdown.  

If you moved from one state to another in 2021, select Yes next to" You lived in another state in 2021"

 

If this area is correct, go to

  • States
  • Select the state you left
  • Continue the interview and it will confirm the dates you lived there.

Can you clarify the situation a little bit? Did you keep the same job after you moved? What state did you move to? Were you still physically working in Michigan or telecommuting?

 

Generally Michigan will not tax your income after you move unless you are still working within their borders. Even then, you should not be taxed by Michigan if you moved to a neighboring state with a reciprocal agreement.

 

This can be fixed in your part-year tax return for Michigan by only allocating the wages that were earned while you were a Michigan resident. The remainder of the wages should be allocated to your new state and you will have to pay taxes to the new state for the wages earned during that period. If your employer withheld Michigan taxes the entire year and you only had to pay for them for the time you were a Michigan resident, then you will probably get a refund from Michigan. You will also want to let your employer know that you moved so they start withholding taxes from the correct state.
