In Indiana, you and your partner may be able to claim the renter's deduction if both of you meet the rules. Here are the key factors to consider:
- Each person must have personally paid rent on their main home in Indiana. The property must be taxed in Indiana.
- This means you can't both claim the full rent amount; instead, you should divide the rent based on what each of you personally paid.
For more detailed information, you can refer to the Indiana Department of Revenue's page on Indiana Deductions and scroll down to Renters Deduction.
