Michigan 529 Basics

A 529 plan is a tax-advantaged savings/investment plan designed to encourage saving for the future expenses of a designated beneficiary (typically one’s child or grandchild). The plans are named after Section 529 of the Internal Revenue Code and are administered by state agencies and organizations.

Michigan 529 Plan Tax Deduction?

All 529 account investment earnings are exempt from state and federal taxes. Withdrawals made for qualified expenses — which now include both K-12 and college education costs — are not penalized by taxes.

Michigan law further provides a state tax deduction for contributions made to a Michigan Education Savings Program (529) account, up to $5,000 for individuals and $10,000 for joint filers. The Michigan 529 Plan Tax Deduction is available for the amount of contributions minus the amount of qualified withdrawals made within a given tax year.

Types of Section 529 College Savings Plans:

There are two types of 529 college savings plans: prepaid tuition plans and savings plans:

• Prepaid Tuition Plans allow for the pre-purchase of tuition based on today’s rates and then paid out at the future cost when the beneficiary is in college. Performance is often based upon tuition inflation. Prepaid plans may be administered by states or higher education institutions.

– The Michigan Education Trust (MET) is Michigan’s 529 prepaid tuition plan.

• Savings Plans are different in that your account earnings are based upon the market performance of the underlying investments, which typically consist of mutual funds. Savings plans may only be administered by states.

– The Michigan Education Savings Program (MESP) is Michigan’s direct sold 529 savings plan.

– The MI 529 Advisor Plan is Michigan’s advisor sold savings plan.

How do 529 accounts work?

529 accounts are education savings plans operated by a state or educational institution. They are named after Section 529 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code that governs these types of savings plans. Contributions earn money from investments and are able to be used for an individual child’s educational expenses.

What kind of K-12 expenses can 529 dollars now be used for tax-free?

Changes made in 2017 to the federal tax code expand the definition of qualified expenses to include “tuition in connection with enrollment or attendance at an elementary or secondary public, private, or religious school.” This does not include tuition for pre-kindergarten schools or programs.

Legislation currently being considered by Congress would further expand the definition to include homeschool expenses, as well as several types of expenses that could benefit children enrolled in public or private schools: curriculum or online educational materials; tutoring services; AP, SAT, ACT or standardized achievement tests; dual enrollment higher-education programs; or therapies to help students with disabilities or other special learning needs.

Are separate 529 accounts needed for a child’s K-12 expenses and college expenses?

No. Federal law expanded the definition of qualified expense to include tuition for elementary and secondary education. This is in effect for 2018. A single 529 account for each child (considered the “designated beneficiary”) now may be used to pay for either elementary and secondary tuition, higher education expenses or both.

Who can set up a 529 account?

Any person can set up a 529 account and name an individual child as a beneficiary. Individuals do not need to have set up a 529 account in order to make contributions. Per IRS guidance, anyone can set up a 529 and name anyone as a beneficiary — a relative, a friend, even themselves. Check out the case studies below to see sample scenarios that show how a 529 plan may benefit a family like yours.

Michigan law also enables any of the following to open and contribute specifically to MESP accounts: “A state or local government agency or instrumentality, an entity exempt from taxation under section 501(c)(3) of the internal revenue code, an estate or trust, or a corporation that enters into a Michigan education savings program agreement.”

Are there any limits on 529 accounts?

There is no limit on 529 withdrawals to pay for higher education, but federal law limits withdrawals for elementary and secondary education expenses to $10,000 per year. Different 529 plans have maximum allowable account balances. For example, the MESP limits the amount to $500,000.

Also, according to the website 529 K12 Facts: “You can donate up to $15,000 per year ($30,000 if married filing jointly) beginning in tax year 2018 without incurring federal gift tax. Contributions of up to $75,000 ($150,000 if married filing jointly) also can be treated as having been made over a five-year period, for federal gift tax purposes.”

529 Example:

Parents start saving in a 529 plan at their child’s birth, contributing $250/month for 14 years (equaling $42,000). The tax-

deferred growth in the 529 plan’s earnings means $10,000 more of their own funds are available than if

 they had invested in a standard taxable account. They decide to enroll their child in a private high school. Enough money is there to pay up to $10,000 for each year’s tuition, with remaining plan dollars free to help pay for higher education.

Yes, the Inheritance Tax is still in effect, but only for those individuals who inherited from a person who died on or before September 30, 1993.

For heirs of individuals who passed after 1993, inheritances from a Michigan estate that includes only property located in Michigan will not be subject to inheritance tax. But, if the estate includes property located in other states, a beneficiary who inherits the property may be subject to tax in that state.

Michigan Retiree Tax Information

Is Michigan Tax Friendly For Retirees? In short, Michigan is a relatively tax-friendly destination for retirees. It does not tax Social Security and it provides a sizable deduction for seniors on other types of retirement income. Sales taxes are somewhat below average, while property taxes are above average. Michigan does not have an estate tax or an inheritance tax.

Is Social Security taxable in Michigan?

Social Security payments are not taxed in Michigan. Any Social Security retirement income that is considered taxable on your federal income tax return can be subtracted from your Adjusted Gross Income (AGI) when filing your state taxes in Michigan.

Are other forms of retirement income taxable in Michigan?

Yes, but seniors can deduct most or all of this income. The deduction applies to income from retirement savings accounts and pensions. It varies depending on the age of the filer.

Taxpayers born before 1946 are eligible for a deduction against private pension income of $54,404 per person ($108,808 for joint filers) for tax year 2022. These taxpayers can also subtract interest, dividends and capital gains up to $12,127 for single filers and $24,254 for joint filers. Public pension income is completely exempt.

Taxpayers born between 1946 and 1952 can claim a deduction against all income of $20,000 ($40,000 for joint filers). For income from a government pension, that figure is $35,000 for single filers and $55,000 for joint filers ($70,000 for joint filers if each filer has such a pension). Taxpayers born after 1952 can claim the same deductions once they turn 67.

So, if you had $60,000 of 401(k) income and you were born in 1949, you would be able to deduct $20,000 of that income. The remaining $40,000 would be taxed at the Michigan flat income tax rate of 4.25%.

How high are property taxes in Michigan?

The average effective property tax rate in Michigan is 1.32%, which is pretty high. That adds up to about $1,320 for every $100,000 in home value. Of course, property taxes are higher in some areas than in others. In Wayne County the average effective rate is 2.16%. In Mackinac County, it is less than half that at 1.06%.

What is the Michigan homestead property tax credit?

The homestead property tax credit is available to homeowners in Michigan who meet certain eligibility requirements for income and property value. Homeowners who are eligible can claim a credit on all property taxes owed.

The credit application is filed with your annual income tax return. To be eligible, you must have household income of $60,600 or less and your home’s taxable value must be no more than $136,600. You also need to have owned or were contracted to pay rent while occupying a Michigan homestead for at least 6 months during the year where property taxes and/or service fees were imposed.

You are not eligible if 100% of your household resources were received from the Michigan Department of Health and Human services.

Another form of property tax relief available to homeowners in Michigan is the principal residence exemption, or PRE. This allows homeowners to exempt their primary residence from up to 18 mills of local school district operating taxes. (A mill is one tenth of a percent, so 18 mills is 1.8%, which applies to taxable value.)

How high are sales taxes in Michigan?

The state sales tax rate in Michigan is 6%, which is slightly above average. But because the state has no local sales taxes, its state and local combined rates are also below average.

What other Michigan taxes should I be concerned about?

If you plan on working during retirement, keep in mind that many Michigan cities collect their own income taxes in addition to the state income tax rate of 4.25%. In general, these city income taxes range from about 1% to 1.5%, but the Detroit city income tax is 2.4%. Those taxes do not apply to any form of retirement income, however.

Michigan does not have an estate tax or inheritance tax.

LEO Dec.2022 – Michigan Unemployment Tax Form 2022

Claimants have until Jan. 2 2023, to select electronic delivery option

As tax season approaches, the Michigan Unemployment Insurance Agency (UIA) reminds those who were paid jobless benefits this year to choose one of two options for getting a copy of their 1099-G tax form. You can receive an electronic copy accessible online or a paper copy sent by mail to the address on file with UIA.

Unemployment benefits are taxable, so payments received in 2022 must be reported on state and federal tax returns. Anyone who received jobless benefits this year will receive Form 1099-G Certain Government Payments as proof of income and how much income tax was withheld this year.

Claimants have until Jan. 2, 2023, to request to that an electronic version of their 1099-G be posted to their Michigan Web Account Manager (MiWAM) account. To change your preference:

• Log into your MiWAM account at MiLogin.Michigan.gov.
• Under the Account Alerts tab, click on “Request a delivery preference for Form 1099-G.”
• If your Account Alerts tab doesn’t have a 1099-G link, click on the Claimant Services tab; then select “Delivery Preference for Form 1099-G.”

Statements will be available to view or download by the end of January 2023. Here’s how to access it online:

• Go to the “I Want To” heading in MiWAM.
• Click on the “1099-G” link.
• Click on the 1099-G letter for the 2022 tax year.

Those who do not request an electronic 1099-G form will have a paper copy sent to them at the end of January through the U.S. postal mail to the address listed on their MiWAM account. If you moved in the past year, be sure to update your mailing address in MiWAM to receive your tax form at the correct address.

UIA’s Your 1099-G Tax Form webpage answers key questions claimants may have.

If the 1099-G that you receive lists an incorrect amount in “total payment” or “tax withheld,” you can request a revised form by downloading and completing Form UIA 1920, Request to Correct Form 1099-G. Then, mail the form to:

Unemployment Insurance Agency, 1099-G

P.O. Box 169

Grand Rapids, MI 49501-0169.

Or Fax it to 1-517-636-0427.

Timely access to tax forms is a tenet of UIA Director Julia Dale’s wide-ranging reform of the agency, including providing exemplary customer service, fighting fraud, and instilling a human-centered approach to interactions with workers and employers. Since Dale was named director in October 2021, she has:

• Announced a replacement for the agency’s decade-old computer system with a user-friendly, state-of-the-art interface for claimants and businesses. A new system will allow for quick analysis of data that is currently not possible and timely program adjustments as economic conditions change.
• Approved more than 76,000 overpayment waivers this year of state and federal benefits paid out during the pandemic to Michigan workers and totaling more than $555 million.
• Obtained two federal approvals for a pause on certain collections for those facing overpayments.
• Secured a $6.8 million equity grant from the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) to make it easier for workers in underserved communities to access jobless benefits.
• Reassigned staff and resources to address the largest categories of claims that are contributing to the agency’s case backlog.
• Implemented new ethics and security clearance policies for employees and contractors.
• Redesigned the agency’s public website at Michigan.gov/UIA for easier use on mobile phones and tablets.
• Rebuilt to nearly $1.8 billion (and growing) the UI Trust Fund from which weekly benefits are paid to workers who lose their job through no fault of their own.
• Worked to simplify its correspondence using a human-centered approach to make letters easier to understand for claimants and employers.

Is There a Michigan Estate Tax?

There is no estate tax in Michigan. Michigan is one of 38 states that have no estate tax. No matter the size of your estate, you won’t owe money to the Wolverine State. You might owe taxes to the federal government through the federal estate tax, depending on the size of your estate.

Even though there is no Michigan estate tax, you might still owe the federal estate tax. The exemption for that tax is $11.70 million in 2021 and $12.06 million in 2022. This tax is portable for married couples, meaning that with the right legal moves a married couple can protect up to $24.12 million when both spouses have died.

What Is The Estate Tax?

The estate tax is applied to the estate of a recently deceased person after they die but before the money is passed on to their heirs. It is sometimes referred to as the “death tax.”

The estate tax is not to be confused with the inheritance tax. That tax is applied to a person’s heirs after they have already received their inheritance.

Does Michigan Have an Inheritance Tax and Gift Tax?

Like the majority of states, Michigan does not have an inheritance tax. If you stand to inherit money in Michigan, you should still make sure to check the laws in the state where the person you are inheriting from lives. In Pennsylvania, for example, the inheritance tax can apply to heirs who live out of state if the descendant lives in the state.

Michigan also has no gift tax. The federal gift tax exemption is $15,000 per recipient per year in 2021 and $16,000 in 2022
