AI Summary

  • Amends Michigan's income tax law to require the Department of Treasury to develop a donor registry schedule that individual taxpayers can file with their annual state income tax return beginning with the 2023 tax year.

  • The donor registry schedule must include the taxpayer's name, date of birth, address, and either their Social Security number (last 4 digits), driver license number, or state personal identification card number, along with information about Michigan's organ procurement organization.

  • Requires the Department of Treasury to forward completed donor registry schedules to the Secretary of State so participating individuals can be added to the donor registry maintained under the Public Health Code, with the option for information to be transferred directly to the organ procurement organization.

  • Mandates that state income tax return instruction booklets include information describing the organ donor registry program and the taxpayer's right to make anatomical gifts, allowing taxpayers to indicate willingness to participate in the registry.

  • Makes donor registry information submitted with tax returns confidential and exempt from disclosure under the Freedom of Information Act; does not require the Department to maintain records of taxpayers who decline to participate.

  • Takes effect immediately only if House Bills 4363 and 4364 from the 102nd Legislature are also enacted into law.
