What is your situation? Are you renting out your primary home? If not, what does rent have to do with it? You pay mortgage interest and property taxes on your home, not rent. Your property includes both the building and the land.
I rent an apt from a landlord
A principal residence is the primary location that a person inhabits. It is also referred to as a primary residence or main residence. It does not matter whether it is a house, apartment, trailer, or boat, as long as it is where an individual, couple, or family household lives most of the time.
I rent from a landlord, does that mean I'm paying rent on a property?
Yes, you are paying rent on a property since you have a landlord that collects the rent.
RENT
There is not a rent deduction or credit on your Federal return. If your state has anything for renters you will be prompted to enter your rent info when you complete your state return. As far as I know, the states that have anything for rent are Arizona, California, Connecticut, Hawaii, Indiana, Iowa, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, Rhode Island, Vermont, Washington DC, and Wisconsin.
