Please see TurboTaxThomas' response to the question, "Missouri property tax credit return, how much will I receive?", below:
The Missouri Property Tax Credit allows eligible taxpayers to claim up to $750 if they pay rent or $1,100 if they pay real estate tax on the home they own and occupy. If you rent from a facility that does not pay property taxes, you are not eligible for a Property Tax Credit.
The amount will be calculated on Line 14 of the Missouri Form MO-PTS (Property Tax Credit Schedule) and then carry to Line 40 of the MO-1040 tax return. TurboTax will ask you the appropriate questions for this credit in the state interview section, determine your eligibility, and make the calculation for you.
Here is a link to the Missouri Dept of Revenue web page which discusses all aspects of the credit:

If you are required to file a Missouri Individual Income Tax Return, you must use Form MO-1040 or Form MO-1040P with a Property Tax Schedule (MO-PTS) attached.
If you are not required to file a Missouri Individual Income Tax Return, then you may file the Missouri Property Tax Credit Claim (MO-PTC).
If you are unsure which form best meets your filing needs, use our Personal Tax Form Selector (this is an easier way to choose the appropriate form for your situation).
For more information about Property Tax Credit, please visit the Missouri Department of Revenue FAQs website.

The Missouri Property Tax Credit Claim is a program that allows certain senior citizens
and 100 percent disabled individuals to apply for a credit based on the real estate
taxes or rent they have paid for the year. The credit is for a maximum of $750.00 for
renters and $1,100.00 for owners. The actual credit is based on amount paid and total
household income, taxable and nontaxable.
Detailed instructions, forms, and charts can be found at: http://dor.mo.gov/forms.
If you need to file an income tax return, Form MO-1040 or Form MO-1040P, you must use Form MO-PTS to claim a property tax credit and attach it to the Form MO-1040 or Form MO-1040P.
Do not use Form MO-PTC if you are required to file an income tax return.

@Debreanne
It depends.
Your ability to claim the renter's credit depends upon which state you reside in and if they offer the credit. The IRS does not have a renter's credit.
Depending upon your state of residence, when you prepare your tax return, your will be asked questions in the state interview section that will be used to determine if you are eligible for a renter's credit on your tax return.
Please comment with your specific state and whether you have filed a tax return already or not and we can assist you further based upon your specific situation.

There is no such renter's rebate on a Federal tax return. Some states may have a renter's deduction or credit on the state tax return.
