Will I be getting a refund from my renters rebate?

We cannot see your screen, your tax return or your account.  We do not know what state you are asking about, and we do not know what --if anything-- you did to file for the rent rebate.  What state?

I live in Vermont and had help getting to the form for the renters rebate. But it doesn't show that I'm getting a rebate. Why? I most definitely qualify. Is there something else I need to do such as print the form and mail it in?

No, you don't have to print the form and mail it in.

If you have entered all of your information into the TurboTax program under the state interview questions, the software will calculate the amount of the Renter's Rebate you are entitled to. 

Go back through your state section. 

If you have met all of the requirements to claim the renter's credit, you will see the following example screen:

Please see the following information to ensure you do qualify for the credit:

Be sure to enter all of the information requested to obtain the credit.  I may just be that one more question needs to be answered in order to generate the credit.

Note that the Renter's Credit does not get processed with the income tax return but is done separately. 

Payments are issued separately.  Please see the attached instructions for additional information.
