I need to file my renter credit

I already filed and sent my taxes out but I still need to file my renter credit. How do I do that?

If you have renters credit, it should've asked you to enter it before you finished filing for your state taxes. If that wasn't the issue then you would have to file for an Amendment for your state taxes.

You should not try to amend your return until the original return it has been fully processed and you have received your refund or your payment has cleared.
Amended returns do not “catch up” to your original return and replace them; they are processed as two separate returns. 
Amended returns have to be printed and filed by mail.  It can take the IRS up to 12 weeks or longer to process them.   If you are due a larger refund than on your original return, your amended return should only show the difference and you will receive a separate check for it.  If you owe money on your amended return, it will show only the new amount owed, you will have to mail a check with the return.

Here's a link that will give you specific instructions on how to Amend on the product you own.
