SB0435

Individual income tax: home heating credit; adjustments based on Detroit Consumer Price Index; change to United States Consumer Price Index. Amends sec. 527a of 1967 PA 281 (MCL 206.527a).

Chamber Passed·8/13/25

Adjusts Michigan's home heating credit based on the Detroit Consumer Price Index instead of the U.S. Consumer Price Index.

This bill amends Michigan's home heating credit provisions to adjust the credit based on the Detroit Consumer Price Index rather than the U.S. Consumer Price Index. The credit is intended for individuals with total household resources below 110% of the federal poverty income standards. The bill also details the process for claimants to receive their credits, including the use of energy drafts and negotiable warrants. It specifies that the credit is exempt from legal processes to collect debts and cannot be offset against any liability or debt of the claimant.
