Michigan NOT In Compliance with the Streamlined Sales Tax Agreement - Letter of Substantial Compliance Sent to the Streamlined Sales Tax Governing Board

The Michigan Department of Treasury has sent the Streamlined Sales Tax Governing Board a letter certifying that Michigan is in substantial compliance with the terms of the Streamlined Sales and Use Tax Agreement.  The state had until August 1, 2008 to amend the law to come into compliance.  The letter notes that Michigan was in substantial compliance with each section of the Streamlined Sales and Use Tax Agreement on October 1, 2005.  The letter further states that although Streamlined Sales and Use Tax Agreement amendments made after October 1, 2005 have not yet been codified in Michigan statute, legislation addressing those amendments with an effective date of January 1, 2008, has passed Michigan's House of Representatives, and it is expected that the state Senate will pass the legislative package in the near future.

      There are three bills that have passed the house and waiting for action by the Senate.  House Bill 5554 would amend the Streamlined Sales and Use Tax Administration Act (MCL 205.825) to address the subject of "certified service providers."  House Bill 5555 would amend the General Sales Tax Act (MCL 205.51 et al.).  House Bill 5556 would amend the Use Tax Act (MCL 205.92).
