When I e-filed my MI taxes, did the Home Heating credit form submit as well, or do I need to mail that in separately? Turbotax went through and had me enter all my information for this credit. It revealed that I am eligible for the HHC, yet I cannot find it in my printable records or find it to view electronically. Please help, I need to have this credit applied to assist with heating/energy costs.
Your Michigan Home Heating credit would have been on Form MI-1040CR-7. This Form is supported in TurboTax for e-filing and print. If you do not see a Form MI-1040CR-7 in your state return documents, then you can mail the form separately.
Although the State of Michigan suggests it be e-filed with your Michigan tax return, you should not amend your 2020 return because this credit does not flow to your MI-1040. State law requires the Michigan Department of Treasury to issue your credit in the form of a State of Michigan Energy Draft, which you can only use the draft to pay heat bills.
Please keep in mind that you qualify for a home heating credit if all of the following apply:
Note: You may be required to submit documentation to support your claim.
To access the form, please see 2020 MI 1040CR-7. The due date for Form MI-1040CR-7 is September 30, 2021.
