Instructions for Form 6074, MICHIGAN Schedule of Tiered Entities Purpose For 2025 and future tax years this form allows an eligible taxpayer to report an indirect credit for their allocated share of tax paid by an electing flow-through entity. By electing to file annual returns and pay the Michigan Flow-Through Entity (FTE) tax, the electing flowthrough entity's indirect members become eligible to claim a credit for the member's allocated share of that FTE tax. Taxpayers are also required to report on this form an addition and a subtraction of their allocated share of: (1) Michigan FTE taxes paid by an electing flowthrough entity, to the extent they reduced the filer's adjusted gross income (AGI), and (2) a refund of Michigan FTE tax received by an electing flow-through entity to the extent it increased the filer's AGI. This Form reports FTE tax credits and adjustments that were generated by the filer's indirect ownership in a credit-generating entity (CGE) through one or more other flow-through entities and regardless of whether any of those other entities also elected into the FTE tax. For this purpose, "other flow-through entity" includes a fiduciary (trust or estate), which is not permitted to elect into the FTE tax. Complete this Form before completing Form 6072. Information reported on this form must be carried to Form 6072, Part 2, as directed in these instructions. If Form 6074 does not accompany Form 6072, Part 2, any indirect credits claimed by the filer may be denied. ⚠ This form cannot be filed, nor can an FTE credit be claimed on an annual return, until the CGE has filed its annual return that generates the allocated share of tax (credit) reported on this form. If that FTE tax return has not been filed and ideally, processed without error, you will not be eligible for your credit. Terminology For common terms used in these instructions, refer to Form 6072 general instructions, where numerous terms are defined. See especially CGE, tiered or indirect credits, report, and Michigan Flow-through Entity Tax Information: Indirect Share for Direct Members Report. Timing of Credit Claims If the filer has credits from any CGE's current tax year that were not funded by that CGE's credit funding deadline, do not report those credits on this form; those credits will be reportable in a later tax year, once the CGE pays that tax. To report prior tax year late-funded credits on this year's Form 6074 and Form 6072, see Example 1: Prior Year Late-Funded Credits for Tiered Entities . Where does a taxpayer get the information to complete this form? Whether or not an election was made into the FTE tax, all flowthrough entities are required under Michigan law to report to their direct members specific information about the members' allocated share of an FTE tax credit, addition or subtraction, and business income apportioned to Michigan. You may have received this information in the notes to your federal Schedule K-1 , on a Michigan Flow-Through Entity Tax Information Report, or in any other format the flow-through entity prefers (collectively, "report"). This report is the source of the information the filer must have to complete this form. For indirect credits, this report should include information about the CGE and the filer's indirect share of tax paid on the CGE's return, addition, and subtraction. Also, information about each flowthrough entity in the chain of ownership from the CGE to the filer should be included in that report. On the Michigan Flow-Through Entity Tax Information Report , this information is provided in the Flow-Through's Schedule of Tiered Entities. In a tiered structure, each flow-through entity that is a direct or indirect member of a CGE must take the information reported to it by the flow-through entity it directly owns, and pass that information through to its direct members, allocated appropriately to each. Each entity (tier) in a chain of ownership must break down the allocated share of tax, addition, and subtraction at each tier. If the filer did not receive enough detail on that report to complete this form, the filer should contact the flow-through entity and request the necessary information. Otherwise, significant delays in the processing of the return or a denial of the claimed FTE credit may result. Line-by-Line Instructions Each indirect credit and its respective information are reported separately on a single table. Generally, each table correlates to a single row / indirect credit on Form 6072, Part 2. However, if more rows are needed, an indirect credit may need to be continued on additional table(s). Complete additional Form 6074s as needed. For each table used, complete the number field at the top of the table, using sequential numbers. If multiple tables are needed to report the tiered structure of one indirect credit, use the same number in the field. If the filer has indirect credits attributable to more than one tax year of the same CGE, a separate table should be used for each. If a filer receives an indirect credit from a CGE, but through different chains of ownership, a separate table should be used for each of those indirect credits. Spouses that file a joint return and receive FTE tax credits from the same CGE should complete separate tables to accurately report their individually-allocated credit. See Example 2: Joint Filers with Direct and Indirect Credits for more information. Column A: Report the name of the credit-generating entity (CGE) in the first row, unless the table is continued in another table, in which case, leave the CGE row blank. The next row should be the name of the flow-through entity or fiduciary that directly owns the CGE. Each entity or person named in Column A should be the direct owner of the entity reported immediately above that row. The last row should be the filer, unless the table is a continuation of another table. Remaining rows may be left blank. If the filer has indirect credits attributable to more than one tax year of the same CGE, a separate table should be used for each. Column B: Report the FEIN or SSN of the entity or person reported in the same row in Column A. Column C: Report the tax year end, in MM-YY format, of the entity or person in the same row in Column A. Column D: Report as a percentage the share of the CGE's FTE tax attributable to the entity or person in the same row in Column A. Report the percentage as XXX.XXXX. For example, enter 76.5432 if the filer from column A has a 76.5432% share of the CGE's FTE tax. This column should not be completed for the CGE. Each entry in Column D should represent the entity or person's share of the amount reported in column E or F in the immediately preceding row. Many times, this will be the entity or person's ownership percentage. If the person or entity has income or gain specially allocated from the partnership listed immediately above it, the person's or entity's credit should also be allocated in that manner. In that case, derive the person or entity's credit percentage based on a ratio, the numerator of which is the person's known dollar amount of allocated tax reported in column E or F, and the denominator of which is the dollar amount of allocated tax reported in column E or F of the immediately preceding row.

Column E: Report the amount of prior year late-funded credits attributable to the person or entity in the same row in Column A. Members must delay their credit claims in some cases, depending on when the CGE paid its tax. Credits reported here should be from a CGE's prior tax year (a tax year that did not end with or within your current tax year) and should represent the person or entity's share of the tax paid after that CGE's credit funding deadline . See definition of that term in the Form 6072 instructions. If the filer has timely funded credits from the same CGE from the CGE's current tax year, report that credit in a separate table and in Column F. If the filer has credits from any CGE's current tax year that were not funded by that CGE's credit funding deadline, do not report those credits on this form; those credits will be reportable in a later tax year, once the CGE has paid that tax. Note: It is possible to claim late funded credits in a future tax year even if the filer is no longer a member of the CGE when the FTE tax is actually paid. Column F: Report the amount of allocated share of FTE tax that was paid by the CGE's credit funding deadline , that is attributable to the person or entity in the same row in Column A. Any portion of the entity's current tax year FTE tax that was paid after its credit funding deadline is not allowed to be claimed this year, but can be claimed on the filer's return for a subsequent tax year, depending on when the CGEpaid that tax. Column G: For each entry in Column A, report their share of the CGE's Michigan FTE tax paid, to the extent the FTE tax was deducted in arriving at the entity's business income (as defined under Part 4 of the Michigan Income Tax Act) or the person's AGI, for the current tax year. When a flow-through entity deducts state and local taxes (SALT) on its federal return, that deduction reduces the entity's net income and in turn, generally reduces each member's distributive shares of income included in their flow-through income (FTI) or AGI. Part 1 of the Michigan Income Tax Act requires that a taxpayer's share of these income taxes be added to AGI and therefore, the filer is required to report their share in this column. Column H: For each person or entity in Column A, report their share of Michigan FTE taxes refunded to a CGE in the CGE's tax year that ends with or within their direct member's tax year, to the extent that refund was included in the entity's business income (as defined under Part 4 of the Michigan Income Tax Act) or the person's AGI, for the current tax year. When a flow-through entity receives a refund of state and local taxes (SALT) that it deducted on a previous federal return, that refund increases the entity's net income and in turn, generally increases each member's distributive shares of income included in AGI. The Michigan Income Tax Act allows a taxpayer to subtract their allocated share of such refund to be added to AGI and therefore, the filer should report their share in this column. How to Carry Information to Form 6072, Part 2 For these instructions, see Form 6072, Part 2 instructions. Other Supporting Forms and Schedules Include with this form for each flow-through entity and credit (or adjustment) claimed a copy of the Schedule K-1 with any of the following received from the flow-through entity: Schedule K-1 notes, Michigan Flow-through Entity Tax Information Report , or the same information in any other format. Examples Example 1: Prior Year Late-Funded Credit for Tiered Entities Company A timely filed a 2024 Michigan Flow-through Entity Tax return. However, Company A failed to pay all tax on or before their credit funding deadline and instead paid the tax on November 1, 2025. Therefore, Company A's members will experience a delay related to when they are able to claim the credit reported on Company A's 2024 Michigan Flow-through Entity Tax return. Company A filed their 2025 Michigan Flowthrough Entity Tax return timely and the full credit was funded by Company A's credit funding deadline for the tax year. Company A deducted $500,000 in SALT on their 2025 federal return. In addition, Janet Smith's ownership percentage in Company A increased on January 1, 2025, therefore her portion of the SALT tax deducted on Company A's federal return also increased. Janet Smith will report the prior year late-funded credit in a separate table from the current year timely funded credit on Form 6074, as she is receiving these credits indirectly from Company A. This Table supplements Indirect Credit Number 1 on Form 6072, Part 2.
