  • MiLogin is the State of Michigan's Identity Management solution that allows users the ability to access many state services and systems online, across multiple departments, using a single user ID and password.

    For example, if you currently access:

    • Secretary of State Online Services (CARS)
    • MDHHS MI Bridges
    • MDHHS myHealthButton
    • Michigan Office of Retirement Services (ORS)'s miAccount
    • Treasury eServices for Individual Income Tax
    • Unemployment Insurance Agency's Michigan Web Account Manager (MiWAM) or Pure Michigan Talent Connect (PMTC) online services

    All above services use your MiLogin User ID. Therefore if you already have a MiLogin ID created for any of these services, please use that user ID and password to log into the MiLogin portal, instead of creating a new account.

  • Please do not create a new MiLogin account if you already have one to access the following online services:

    • Secretary of State Online Services (CARS)
    • MDHHS MI Bridges
    • MDHHS myHealthButton
    • Michigan Office of Retirement Services (ORS)'s miAccount
    • Treasury eServices for Individual Income Tax
    • Unemployment Insurance Agency's Michigan Web Account Manager (MiWAM) or Pure Michigan Talent Connect (PMTC) online services

    Address Confidentiality Program Participants: If you already have a MiLogin account and think someone knows your password or can get into your email, you should create a new email account. Use the new account to create a new MiLogin user ID and password.

    If you have, use your existing user ID and password from those systems to log into the MiLogin portal.

  • If you own more than one MiLogin User ID, this process will help you to merge multiple IDs into one primary ID while retaining all your current access to applications. It is possible that you have more than one MiLogin User ID and may not realize it.

    For example, the User ID you use to log into MDHHS MiBridges, Michigan Treasury eServices, Secretary of State online services, or to file an Unemployment claim are all MiLogin User IDs.

    You only need one MiLogin User ID to access any of these applications, if you use different User IDs to access these applications, then you would benefit from the ID Merge process.

    How does it help you?

    You will only need to remember one User ID and password and will be able to reset password yourself if you ever forget it.

    What User ID will I use going forward?

    The User ID you have logged in with will become your primary account User ID.

    What you will need before you start?

    Please have the full User IDs and passwords for other MiLogin accounts to merge with your primary account. If you have forgotten the password on a particular account(s), please go to the Forgot your password link and reset your password before starting the ID merge process.

    You can also skip the User ID Merge by clicking on the "REMIND ME LATER" button, when prompted.
