Incomplete calculations on MI 1040 form for zero return (desktop print option)

I've completed all my inputs and have zero tax owed to Michigan state. The desktop system doesn't generate a MI1040 Form and therefore can't print it. This seems like a bug in the system because the form show once you have zero tax owed, the form says I don't need to file -- this is incorrect Note: Michigan requires EVERYONE to file a tax return if they are required to file a federal return. I'm not concerned about efile, I just want to be able to print state return. Help please !

You should be able to go into Forms mode and open the Form MI-1040 which will force it to generate whether it wants to or not. It will fill in relevant information as well. Then you can print the form.

MI 1040 is not listed in the open Forms.

My MI 1040 has a plus sign. When I click on it, I see your list above. You should be able to select the 1040. Since you can't, start with the Info Worksheet. You may need to override something to make the form appear. Maybe choose a city like Detroit that is part of the state return to file.
