If a taxpayer contributes to a Michigan 529 college plan, a portion of the contribution can be subtracted from income on the Michigan state tax return.
Contributions of up to $5,000 per year are eligible for a Michigan state income tax deduction for those filing a single return; and up to $10,000 per year for those filling a joint return.
To enter the deductible portion of the contributions in ProWeb, from Michigan Return menu select:
- Subtractions from Income
- Enter your total contributions, less qualified withdrawals, to the Michigan Education Savings Program, MI 529 Advisor Plan, and MI Achieving a Better Life Experience Program - Enter the taxpayer (and spouse) contributions to the plan but not more than $5,000 per beneficiary, or $10,000 for MFJ filers.
