Question

My employer is in the city of Detroit, but since COVID, I work from home 4 days a week. I can't find the option to allocate the days work in Detroit, how do I find that?

Last year, I had the option to allocate the days, but this year, I don't see that option.

Yes, you have the option to allocate Detroit wages by working days.  Return to your MI state interview and "Edit" the "Other Situations" topic.

 

  1. Revisit the Michigan City Tax Return
  2. Verify Detroit
  3. Select your Detroit Resident status
  4. Edit the employer line
  5. Select Working Days Allocation

It doesn't give me the option if I select Detroit Non Resident. Would I select Detroit Part-Year Resident?

 

Thank you!

No, you should not select the part-year Detroit resident option; nonresident is correct and should provide the correct interview questions.  

 

Once you select the "I file as Detroit nonresident" radial on the page titled "Your Detroit Return" the next page should be titled "Detroit Wages"  and show your employer name from your W2.  See Screenshot #1 below.  

 

You should then select "Edit" next to the employer line.  The next page should be "Detroit Wage Adjustment" and provide a dropdown menu with an option that reads "Working Days Allocation" (Screenshot #2 below).
