Bill > HB6450

This bill would add a new section to the Michigan Income Tax Act of 1967 to provide a tax credit for individuals who donate money or food to certain charitable organizations that provide accommodation, food, or meals to indigent people. The credit would be worth 50% of the donation, up to $100 for individual filers or $200 for joint filers. For resident estates or trusts, the credit would be limited to 10% of the filer's tax liability or $5,000, whichever is less. The bill also allows charitable organizations to request a determination from the state department on whether their donations qualify for the credit.
