Also starting in 2013, new legislation phases out personal exemption for taxpayers with “total household resources” over $75,000 for single filers and $150,000 for joint filers. And eliminates personal exemption for taxpayers with total household resources over $100,000 for single filers and $200,000 for joint filers.

Every Michigan employer must obtain a Withholding Exemption Certificate (Form MI-W4) from each employee. The federal W-4 cannot be used in place of the MI-W4. The 2011 exemption amount is $3,700 per year times the number of personal and dependency exemptions allowed under the internal revenue code. An employee may not claim more exemptions on the MI-W4 than can be claimed on the employee’s federal income tax return.
