Homeowners tax refund

If you're asking about MN, see this: 

Under certain circumstances, Minnesota will issue a refund of property taxes to renters in the state. For rty Tax Refund page.

To obtain the refund, the taxpayer must have a CRP, Certificate of Rent Paid (CRP), for each rental unit lived in during the year. The taxpayer's landlord is required to deliver a completed CRP to the taxpayer no later than January 31st of each year.

You will need the CRP to determine your refund, if any, and you must include what is called a Form M1PR with the CRP when it is filed. These forms have to be printed and mailed in to:

Minnesota Property Tax Refund
St. Paul, MN 55145 - 0020

TurboTax will prepare the Form M1PR for you to print. Towards the end of the step-by-step interview for Minnesota you will reach the Other Forms You May Need screen. To have the M1PR prepared and made available for printing, make sure you check the Property Tax Refund (Form M1PR) check box on the Other Forms You May Need screen, then follow the prompts through the end of the interview.

If the department receives your properly completed return and all enclosures are correct and complete, you can expect your refund:

• by mid-August if you are a renter or mobile home owner and you file by June 15, or within 60 days after you file, whichever is later.
• by the end of September if you are a homeowner and you file by August 1, or within 60 days after you file, whichever is later.
