How to Pay Taxes for a Limited Liability Corporation in Michigan

The state of Michigan does not accept credit card payments for taxes.

Michigan requires limited liability corporations to file business income tax returns no later than March 15. Taxpayers that cannot file tax returns for their LLC by the deadline can apply for a six month extension to file. However, that extension does not extend the due date for any tax owed to the Treasury. You are required to make a full payment of the amount of tax due by your LLC to the Michigan Department of Treasury on or before March 15.

Instructions

1. Determine, and then obtain, the Michigan income tax form you are required to complete for your limited liability corporation. LLCs can be filed using corporate returns, sole proprietorship returns and partnership returns.

2. Complete the return to determine how much tax you owe the Michigan Department of Treasury.

3. Issue a check in the amount of tax due for your LLC. Make your check payable to the Michigan Department of Treasury. Paying less than the full amount due will result in interest and penalties accruing on the overdue amount.

4. Mail your check and your tax return to:

   Michigan Department of Treasury

   Post Office Box 30727

   Lansing, MI 48929
