I live in MN and entered a Certificate of Rent Paid. It says based on my information, you do not have a rent credit this year. I don't know why.

It sounds like TurboTax is showing that you don't qualify for the Minnesota Renter's Credit. Here are a few reasons why this might be happening:

  •  To qualify, all of these must be true
    • You have a valid Social Security Number or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number
    • You must be a full year or part year Minnesota resident
    • You lived in and paid rent on a Minnesota building where the owner was assessed property tax or made payments in lieu of property tax
    • Your household income is below $75,390 (see below)
    • You cannot be claimed as a dependent on someone else’s tax return
    • If you live in subsidized housing, not all of your rent may qualify for 

For more detailed information, you can visit the Minnesota Department of Revenue's Renter's Credit page

 

If you believe you meet all the criteria and still didn't receive the credit reach back out.
