You will want to verify your selection in the Retirement and Pension Benefits section of your Michigan State tax return.  Your selection for the Type of retirement and pension benefit is what allows the subtraction from Form 4884 to occur.  If you choose Type N,other income subject to Michigan Tax was designated , it will not calculate the subtraction . 

 If your pension is eligible to be subtracted from taxable income pursuant to the MI state income tax guidelines, you would need to choose the applicable type (M, R, G, P or C) next to Type in that screen.
