State tax filing

He shouldn't take the taxes withheld as a deduction at all.  He should file a Michigan tax return as a non-resident and request a refund of the taxes.  They aren't taxes he paid, it's just money that was sent to Detroit on his behalf and he should file a tax return to ask for it back.
