Question

Being prompted to fill out old Certificate of Rent Paid Worksheet

When reviewing my State return, I am being prompted to fill in a missing value on the Minnesota Certificate of Rent Paid Worksheet. However, I did not rent last year and shouldn't need this form at all. It looks like it's pre-populating values from my past year's return's CRP form. How do I get rid of this worksheet entirely, as it is not applicable for me this tax year? 

 

I made sure I unchecked the option that was prechecked and said “You rented a home in 2024 and received (or will receive) a CRP from your landlord” when it came up. 

 

Thanks!

You should go over your Minnesota return to make sure that you answered everything correctly.  

 

  1. When you start your Minnesota return, one of the first questions is about your living situation.  Make sure it isn't marked that you rented a home.
  2. Continue the questions until you get to the Other Minnesota Credits screen.  Make sure that the Renter's Credit isn't selected. 

No other screens about the renter's credit should come up.  See the images below for your reference as you enter the information on your return:

Thanks for taking a look at this @LeticiaF1 . I've double checked that both of those are unchecked, however I am still being prompted to fix the worksheet when reviewing.

If that didn't work, you will have to delete your state return in TurboTax Online and start it again. To do this:

 

  1. Open your return.
  2. Select State Taxes from Tax Home.
  3. On the Status of your state returns screen
  4. Select the trashcan icon next to your state
  5. Select Delete
  6. Select Start Over next to your state return on the Status of your state returns screen
