The Michigan Department of Treasury has begun processing home heating credits for low-income residents.
Residents can apply for the credits for 2011 heating payments on
their state income tax return or by filing a Michigan Home Heating
Assistance Claim if they don't file a return. Links to both are on the
state's heating assistance and income tax websites.
Forms are available at many libraries and post offices in Northern
Michigan and at Department of Human Services branch offices around the
state. Residents also may get forms and assistance by calling
517-636-4486.
NOTE:
Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) and AARP Volunteer sites throughout the state can assist low income and senior citizen clients with IRS certified volunteers for no cost. Direct deposit refunds can be obtained in as few as 8-10 days.
