Forms required for Wisconsin State Homestead Credit

I am e-filing my state return and I am eligible for the Wisconsin Homestead Credit. After completing the section of questions I am prompted to upload PDFs of all the required documents, but it is unclear which documents are required. After talking to my state revenue department I'm told that a Schedule H (or H-EZ) form is needed along with the rent certificate from my landlord.

My question is, is TurboTax generating a Schedule H (H-EZ) form for me during the e-filing process? Or is that one of the PDFs that I need to fill out on my own and attach to my e-filing? 

 

Thanks!

    The program is showing that it handles the rent credit. Here are the supported forms for WI, the bottom one. If you upload your rent certificate, sch H will be generated and passed along. It is not in the Free version according to this article.

    How do I add my homestead credit, if I already filed my state return? Is schedule H the homestead credit?

    If you have already filed your state tax return, you will not be able to use TurboTax to file for the homestead credit. You can either print and mail your form or you may be able to send it electronically through the Wisconsin Department of Revenue website. Please see the two links below for more information:

    Either Schedule H-EZ or Schedule H are used to file the Wisconsin Homestead Credit. Please see the information link above to determine which form to use for your situation.
