What determines a principle residence?
Michigan law defines principle residence as the one place where a person has his or her true, fixed and permanent home to which, whenever absent he or she intends to return and that shall continue as a principle residence until another principle residence is established. In order to verify a persons claim that a particular property is a principle residence, Treasury will accept various documents including Drivers license, voter registration card, cancelled checks listing the property address, income tax records indicating the mailing address and insurance policies. If a residence no longer qualifies for the Homeowners Principle Residence Exemption, you must file a request to recind form.
