Michigan State Refund Now Showing "Return is Completed" After Manual Review (Feb 3)
Finally seeing some movement on my Michigan state refund! Yesterday the system showed 'no match found' but today its different. System shows processing with completed status. Let me share the exact details from my Michigan Department of Treasury eServices portal: Date: Jan 29, 2025 Description: We have received your Tax Return. Date: Feb 4, 2025 Description: If your return status is listed as pending review that means your return was selected for a manual review, requiring additional processing time. If further information is necessary to complete your return, you will be contacted by mail. The Department is unable to provide a specific date when your return will be completed, any dates provided are an estimated completion date. Michigan Department of Treasury appreciates your continued patience. Date: Feb 4, 2025 Description: Return is completed. I filed back in January and it's been sitting in limbo forever. Checked yesterday and the system showed "no match found" which had me worried, but today it's showing the above information with the return being completed as of February 4th. It looks like my return went through some kind of manual review process based on that middle notification. Has anyone else experienced this with their Michigan refunds? How long after the "Return is completed" status did you actually receive your refund? I'm getting anxious since I've been waiting over a month now. Anyone else seeing movement with their Michigan refunds recently?

Tax expert here - Michigan's been slower than usual this year processing returns. The 'no match found' to 'processing' transition is actually a good sign. Typically means they've validated your identity and started the review process.

•Usually 2-3 weeks from when you see processing, but could be faster depending on their workload

Have you tried using taxr.ai? It analyzes state refund patterns too. I was in the same boat with MI and it predicted my exact deposit date. Worth the $4.99 tbh https://taxr.ai

Congrats on finally seeing movement! I'm in a similar situation - filed my Michigan return in late January and been stuck on "no match found" for weeks. This gives me hope that mine might update soon too. Question though - when you say it shows "Return is completed" as of Feb 4th, have you actually received the refund yet or is it still just showing that status? Trying to figure out if there's another waiting period after the completed status.
