Is my mother eligible for the Michigan Homestead property tax credit if she lived in a Nursing Home for part of the year but paid full property taxes on her home?

Yes, if she has a home she pays taxes on.   You may qualify for a homestead property tax credit if all of the following apply:

 

  • Your homestead is in Michigan.
  • You were a resident of Michigan for at least six months during the year.
  • You own or are contracted to pay rent and occupy a Michigan homestead on which property taxes were levied.
  • If you own your home, your taxable value is $154,400 or less.
  • Your total household resources are $67,300 or less. Part-year residents must annualize total household resources to determine if the credit reduction applies.
  • Your total household resources do not consist solely of payments received from the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services

Note: You may be required to submit documentation to support your claim. See Homeowners or Renters Checklist
