MPSC: Home Heating Credits Now Being Processed
February 2, 2010 - (RealEstateRama) — The Michigan Public Service Commission (MPSC) today noted that the Michigan Department of Treasury is now processing Michigan Home Heating Credits (HHC) for the 2009 tax year. The credit assists low-income customers with winter energy bills.
Instruction booklets and forms have been mailed out by the Department of Treasury. Almost half of the HHCs were e-filed in 2009. For those people who file a tax return, the Michigan Department of Treasury encourages them to e-file their returns because it speeds processing of the HHC. To find an authorized e-file provider and information on free e-file services, visit Treasury’s Web site: MIFastFile.org.
Individuals can still apply for the HHC even if they do not file a tax return.
Forms and instructional materials are available on the Internet at michigan.gov/incometax or by calling 1-800-827-4000.
In addition, forms are available at many libraries and post offices in Northern Michigan, and Department of Human Services branch offices across the state. Heating assistance information is available at michigan.gov/heatingassistance.
The MPSC’s BeWinterWise Web site provides additional information: michigan.gov/bewinterwise.
The MPSC is an agency within the Department of Energy, Labor & Economic Growth.
