The rent you paid as a tenant is not
deductible on a Federal tax
return. However, some States have
a renter’s tax credit for a
personal residence or apartment.
If
your State asks rent related questions while
answering the TurboTax State interview questions, it will cover that deduction.
The States that offers renter's credit are as followed: Arizona, California,
Connecticut, Hawaii, Indiana, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan,
Minnesota, Missouri, New Jersey, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Wisconsin.
You can paper-file your M1PR when you prepare your Minnesota taxes in TurboTax. If you qualify, TurboTax will calculate your Minnesota property tax refund, and fill out an M1PR form which you can print and mail.
As you're preparing your Minnesota taxes, look for the Other Forms You May Need screen (towards the end of the interview, past the estimated taxes and extension topics). Check the first box and follow the onscreen instructions.
How do I efile it after I submitted my taxes? I filled out all the proper forms and didn't get my refund for last year and need to send in my one for this year as well.
