Can you get my property tax credit

 To qualify for homestead credit for 2023 you must meet the following requirements

:

  • You are a legal resident of Wisconsin for all of 2023, from January 1 through December 31.
  • You are 18 years of age or older on December 31, 2023.
  • You have less than $24,680 in household income for 2023. See the definition of "household income".)
  • You meet one of the following conditions:
    • You (or your spouse, if married, and reside in the same household) have positive earned income during the year. (See definition of "earned income".)
    • You (or your spouse, if married, and reside in the same household) are disabled. (See definition of "disabled".)
    • You (or your spouse, if married) are 62 years of age or older at the end of 2023.
  • You own or rent your Wisconsin homestead that is subject to Wisconsin property taxes during 2023. (Persons who reside in mobile or manufactured homes or nursing homes that are subject to property taxes may also qualify to file a claim. See the definition of "homestead".)
  • You are not claimed as a dependent on someone else's 2023 federal income tax return.
    Note: This limitation does not apply if you were 62 years of age or over on December 31, 2023.
  • You did not live for the entire 2023 year in housing that is exempt from property taxes.
    Note: Property owned by a municipal housing authority is not considered tax-exempt for homestead credit purposes if that authority makes payments in place of property taxes to the city or town in which it is located. If you live in public housing, you should check with your rental manager.
  • At the time of filing a claim, you are not living in a nursing home and receiving Title XIX medical assistance.
  • You are not claiming Wisconsin farmland preservation credit for 2023.
  • You are not claiming the veterans and surviving spouses property tax credit on 2023 real estate taxes.
  • Only one claim may be filed per household. A married couple residing together is one household. (See the definition of "household.")
  • You are not filing a claim on behalf of a person after their death.
  • You have not received Wisconsin Works (W2) payments of any amount or county relief payments of $400 or more for each month of 2023.

If you are working on your Wisconsin State return in Turbo Tax, there will be a prompt in the return that will inform you if you are eligible for the credit based on the information that is in your return.
