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.

I am only filing homestead. How do I proceed?

[BarbaraW22]

You cannot use TurboTax to file a homestead credit by itself. You must file your federal and state tax returns. If you do not need to prepare a federal and state tax return, please refer to the state website to prepare and submit your homestead credit.

There's no homestead credit to be taken on your federal return, so please clarify. 

What state do you need to take the credit for? 

What's the actual name of the credit? 

Several states have credits or deductions that based on home ownership or residence rental.
