Question

Can I claim Schedule H renter tax credit for District of Columbia if I rented/lived in DC all year, but closed on a home on Dec. 30? Does that 1 day make me ineligible?

My income meets the qualification requirement. The home I purchased is in another state. I continued living in DC until January 2022.

You need to be a resident of the District of Columbia for the entire year to qualify, it does not matter that you didn't own the house on the last day of the year, as long as you were still a DC resident you would qualify for the residency test.
