If you're asking about MN, see this:
Under certain circumstances, Minnesota will issue a refund of property taxes to renters in the state. For 2015, the maximum refund is $2,060 if your household income is less than $58,880 or less (the income eligibility goes up with each dependent). For more information, see the MN Renter’s Property Tax Refund page.
To obtain the refund, the taxpayer must have a CRP, Certificate of Rent Paid (CRP), for each rental unit lived in during the year. The taxpayer's landlord is required to deliver a completed CRP to the taxpayer no later than January 31st of each year.
You will need the CRP
to determine your refund, if any, and you must include what is called a Form
M1PR with the CRP when it is filed. These forms have to be
printed and mailed in to:
Minnesota Property Tax Refund
St. Paul, MN 55145 - 0020
TurboTax will prepare the Form M1PR for you to print. Towards the end of the step-by-step interview for Minnesota you will reach the Other Forms You May Need screen. To have the M1PR prepared and made available for printing, make sure you check the Property Tax Refund (Form M1PR) check box on the Other Forms You May Need screen, then follow the prompts through the end of the interview.

Rent Paid Affidavit (RPA)
If your landlord refuses to give you a CRP by March 1 – or gives you an incorrect CRP and refuses to correct it – you may request a Rent Paid Affidavit (RPA) from the Department of Revenue.
Before requesting an RPA, you should make every attempt to obtain a correct CRP from your landlord. When you file a Property Tax Refund return with an RPA, you can’t file electronically and must include receipts and/or canceled checks as proof of rent paid.
Note: To file electronically, you must have a correct CRP from your landlord. If you’ve requested an RPA from the department, you must file Form M1PR on paper – even if you later receive a CRP from your landlord. This may delay processing of your return.
How to Get an RPA
To request an RPA, call our contact number listed above. You’ll need to provide all of the following information:
The landlord’s name, address and phone number
The address of the rental unit and the county where it’s located
Your name, present address and daytime phone number
Your Social Security number
Your spouse’s name and Social Security number
The number of renters in the unit, dates it was rented and amount of rent paid each month
If you receive rent subsidies (Section 8 or other rental assistance programs)
If the rental unit is an assisted living facility
