Taxation: administration; electronic notice; allow. Amends sec. 28 of 1941 PA 122 (MCL 205.28) & adds sec. 28a.
SB 583 allows Michigan taxpayers to receive tax notices by email if they have consented to electronic communication. The bill adds Section 28a, requiring taxpayers to provide written consent for electronic notices before the Department of Treasury can send them via email. This change directly affects individual and business taxpayers who choose to opt into electronic notices for tax matters. The key mechanism is the new consent requirement, which replaces the previous default of mail-based notices for all taxpayers.
