E-file your 2020 Walker Income Tax Return
We will again be accepting 2020 Walker resident and non-resident returns by e-file. If you use a paid tax preparer that e-files your federal and state return, they will be able to e-file your Walker return this year. If you use TaxAct software/online tax program to prepare your own federal and state returns, you will be able to e-file your Walker return this year. Click here to visit the TaxAct site for more information. Please note that other software/online tax programs used for self-prepared returns (TurboTax, H&R Block, TaxSlayer) do not participate with Michigan local e-filing.

The Income Tax Department is charged with the administration and enforcement of the Uniform City Income Tax Ordinance. The Department is committed to providing courteous service to taxpayers and tax preparers. It is our goal to ensure that all taxpayers pay the lowest legal income tax liability to the City of Walker.

The main functions of the Department are return processing, accounting for receipts, income tax enforcement and taxpayer assistance. 2018-01-17 15.43.26
