But Wait, There's More (Taxes, Probably)
Now, before you go all "Hallelujah, taxation with representation!" (though, hey, that's not a bad way to look at it), there's a tiny detail to consider: what kind of Detroit tax are we talking about?
Tip: The details are worth a second look.
Because let's be honest, Detroit doesn't skimp on the variety when it comes to taxes. You've got your income tax, your property tax, that mysterious late-night parking ticket tax...
Tip: Slow down at important lists or bullet points.

QuickTip: Pay close attention to transitions.
- Head over to the wonderful world of the Michigan.gov website (don't worry, it's not as scary as it sounds).
- Find the "City of Detroit Income Tax" section (because, you know, gotta be specific).
- Click on the "Make e-Payment" button (because who doesn't love a good e-Payment these days?).
From there, you can choose between paying with an eCheck (free!) or a debit/credit card (might come with a fee, so check the fine print). Easy peasy, lemon squeezy.
Hold on a Sec, What About Other Detroit Taxes?
Now, if you're dealing with a different kind of Detroit tax, like that property tax or that parking ticket (we've all been there), the online payment situation might be a little different. As of now, it seems you'll have to explore other options like snail mail or visiting the friendly folks at the Detroit Taxpayer Service Center (who are probably very friendly, despite the whole tax thing).
But hey, at least you know your income tax woes can be tackled from the comfort of your couch. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have some online shopping to do (gotta balance out those tax payments, right?)
