State tax filing
Has the amount of rent you paid changed from 2023 to 2025?
Based on the credit table, the credit is calculated on a curve - the higher your income, the more rent you have to pay to get any of the credit. The maximum amount of income you can earn overall and still qualify for the credit is roughly $75k, but to get a credit at that amount you would to be paying a higher amount of rent.
The lower the rent you pay, the quicker you phase out of the credit.
You can verify that your portion of the rent was entered correctly in TurboTax to make sure the credit amount is being calculated correctly.
If the rent is the same as last year, your income could play a part in not qualifying this year. Even if your income increased only slightly, that could be the difference between qualifying last year and not qualifying this year.
