How do i claim my rent

[NatalieC]

Rent for your personal residence is not deductible on your Federal tax return.

Some states have a renter's credit.If your state has anything for renters you will be prompted to enter your rent info when you complete your state return.

If your state does, then it will be covered in the state interview when you prepare your state return.

The states that have anything for rent are Vermont, Michigan, Maine,Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Missouri, New Jersey, Rhode Island, California, Hawaii, Indiana, Iowa, Arizona,  Wisconsin, and Connecticut.
