This form is used to report and pay individual income tax under Part 1 of Public Act 281 of 1967, as amended.

An FTE is not required to file Form 807, but may choose to file it on behalf of its nonresident members who elect to participate. Two or more participating nonresident members are required for an FTE to file a composite return.

The 2025 composite return is for filers whose tax year ends in 2025.

For participation in a composite return, all of these conditions must apply to the nonresident ultimate owner. The owner is subject to Michigan individual income tax and was not a Michigan resident (full-year or part-year). The owner agrees to claim only one Michigan exemption, does not have a federal excess business loss limitation, and is not a C corporation or has not elected to file federally as a C corporation.

What to bring and attach to Form 807

Include only the following items, as applicable, with the composite return.

A copy of U.S. Form 1065 (5 pages) or U.S. Form 1120S (5 pages); Michigan Schedule of Apportionment (Form MI-1040H); completed Schedule A, Schedule of Participants; Tiered Structure Schedule; completed Schedule B, Schedule of Nonparticipants; completed Schedule C, Schedule of Michigan Residents; a statement signed by an authorized officer or general partner certifying that each participant has been informed of the terms and conditions of this program of participation; supporting documentation to support the flow-through entity tax credit, if applicable; and a copy of Form 4.

A filled-in Form 807 example: an entity files a composite return for two members

Form 807 example filled out, example: an entity files a composite return for two members
Sample Holdings LLC files Form 807 for two nonresident members. It is the original return for calendar year 2025, so the Amended Return box stays empty. The picture shows page 1, and every value in it is made up. The entity reports 92400 of ordinary income and apportions 50% of it to Michigan, so lines 6, 8, 12 and 13 are 0. Both members are nonresidents who participate, so lines 15 and 16 are 0 and each member's exemption is 2900. No flow-through entity tax was elected and no retirement plan deductions apply, so lines 19 and 23 are 0. Estimated payments were 1500, so line 26 shows 217 due and no interest or penalty applies. Tax is due, so lines 27, 28 and 29 stay empty. No paid preparer signed, so the authorization box stays empty.
