   How do I determine what is considered city limits for the Muskegon city tax?

   I have a client who says they are not within the actual city limits of Muskegon and therefore we should not be withholding city tax on our employees working out there.

   Is there a map or zip code references I can use?

   Thank you.

   Hello Sue,

   We have a spreadsheet of addresses to help you determine if your client falls within city limits.

   Let me know if you need more information.

   Thanks for visiting,

   Hello Diane,

   Here’s the instructions for electronic filing of Magnetic Media: We accept the Federal MMREF format, just make sure you include local wages, local wage code preferably MKG and withholdings.

   Have a great day!

    I was just wondering – I’m trying to file my tax return using TurboTax and the software won’t let me proceed without entering a “taxable value of homestead.” Where would I find that information? How should I know, for tax purposes, what my house is worth?

    Like Alice, I need info on “taxable value of homestead.” Where would I find that information? Who can I contact for further info?

    We just moved into the City in September. How and where is that calculated on the tax forms so we are only taxed for residence 1/3 of the year? Thanks!
