    It depends. 

     

    If it was paid in 2019, then you would just reduce the amount of your property taxes claimed in 2019. 

     

    If it was in a prior year and you took the standard deduction, you do not need to report anything. 

     

    If it was in a prior year and you itemized, you will need to report the refund on Schedule 1, line 8 of Form 1040.  But you will have to do a calculation to determine how much to include. 

     

    See pages 23-25 on the attached publication link to determine how much you will have to report. 

     

    Publication 525
