State tax filing

The Michigan state tax calculation starts with federal adjusted gross income (AGI) and then has the following additions and subtractions related to a Michigan Education Savings Program (MESP):

 

Additions:

  • Withdrawals from an MESP if the withdrawal was not a qualified withdrawal as provided in the MESP.  You can exclude from this addition any amount that represents a return of contribution for which no deduction was claimed in any prior tax year.

Subtractions:

  • Contributions to an MESP (up to $5,000 single, $10,000 for married filing jointly).
  • Any part of a qualified withdrawal from an MESP account included in federal AGI.
