I thought I had to report the MN Tax Rebate from 2021 on my 2023 taxes. Why would I have to report this again?

If the state issued a 1099-MISC for 2024, then it would go on your tax return. It is taxable at the federal level but not the state level. If you received a 1099-MISC from MN for 2024, enter the 1099 under Other Common Income.

In MN, enter the same amount in the MN Tax Rebate box.

Your 2023 rebate would have been entered on your 2023 return. If the tax difference (not income) is less than $25, you do not need to amend. If you need to amend your tax return, here is how.

Once your original return is accepted and the finances are settled, you can file an amended return.

Save a copy of the original return before doing an amended return.
See:
- how to file an amended return. - have to scroll down and open for your software type to see current year information.
- I need to amend my state return.
- Can I e-file my amended state return?
- Can I e-file my 1040X to amend my return?
Track amended return status online. Taxpayers can track the status of their amended tax return in English and Spanish using Where’s My Amended Return? Amended returns take up to 16 weeks to process and up to three weeks from the date of mailing to show up in the system.

That wasn't my question. I received a rebate in 2021 and got the 1099 in 2023 so I reported it on my taxes in 2023. Turbo tax is asking me now (2024) if I received that rebate in 2021 and is telling me I need to report it. I'm assuming I don't need to do this again but why would Turbo Tax prompt me to report it when I did it last year...? There wasn't a one time special tax rebate in 2023 and I did not receive another 1099 for 2023 nor 2024..

If you reported it in a prior tax year, you do not need to report it again this year.

Thank you for asking this question, and then re-asking this question. I was so confused and wondering the same thing. I’m glad the second person had a clear understanding of what was being asked!

March 15th and the question is still on the MN questions. I think we all reported it in 2023 so that question needs to be removed. It had me waste a bunch of time confirming that I'd already reported it.

This question is included on the 2024 return because Minnesota issued payments between September 2023 through March 2024. Majority of people received the payment in 2023 and reported it on that return, while some people didn't receive the payment until 2024, and will need to report it on their 2024 return. If you've already included it in 2023, you don't need to report it again.

@KeshaH Hello, I received payment in 2023 .. but did not report it for 2023 taxes because I didnt file 2023 taxes (because I didn't have to, didn't meet the threshold for having to report).. should I report it in my 2024 taxes?

thanks

KeshaH — Wed, 02 Apr 2025 00:08:02 GMT

No, you would only report what you received in 2024 on your 2024 return. If you didn't meet the filing requirements for 2023, you don't need to report that refund anywhere.

Can I add it for 2024 if I missed adding it for 2023?

If you did not add it to your 2023 return, you can amend the 2023 return to add it. If you did not receive the payment in 2024, you will not report it in 2024.

The Tax professional didn't even answer correctly. Did she even read the original question? Why is there a question on TurboTax 2025 asking if we got the 2021 Tax Rebate for $260 for single filers but did not enter into our taxes until 2023? We entered them in 2023 so why is TurboTax asking us to enter it again on our Tax year 2025? Is this a question that TurboTax should delete off the 2025 tax year questions? Simple question, can we get a logical answer? (Why are they asking for it again?)

If you haven't reported it in the past then yes, report it. I'm assuming that's why they are asking, Follow the prompts to see what is says, you can always clear the form until you get a correct answer.

Well, they are asking the same question for 2025 tax filing. Why is it still asking when most of us reported it in 2023 and 2024? What do we do when we get to that confusing question? Or is this where TT makes us pay more to get the answer?

MindyB — Sun, 01 Feb 2026 13:59:32 GMT

The reason this is being asked again is that most, but not all, taxpayers received the rebate in 2023 and 2024. If they received the rebate in 2025, then they will report it on their 2025 tax return. TurboTax includes the question to ensure that Minnesota taxpayers are not taxed in Minnesota for this rebate, since it is taxable federally.

It sounds like you received the rebate in 2023, so you can skip answering the question "If you received payment from the State of MN for the Tax Rebate Program and you reported it as income in your federal return, enter the amount in the box below __"

Mundy,

Could you direct me to the section that they ask that question so I can go back to that question? I have to make sure I answered it correctly and cannot find the section, I can't even find it anymore.

Thanks in advance!

baypoint261 — Sun, 01 Feb 2026 14:12:26 GMT

So I skip the question but I also enter the amount that I already reported in 2023? This is very confusing wording.

MarilynG1 — Thu, 05 Feb 2026 17:11:10 GMT

If you didn't receive the Minnesota Tax Rebate in 2025, skip the question and don't enter any amount (leave it blank), since you already reported it in 2023.

This should be the last year that question is asked.

If you already reported the rebate on a prior year return, please disregard that question.
