I live in a rented property which makes me eligible for the Minnesota Property Tax Refund but there is no option other than homeowner or mobile home owner in the prompts

Minnesota offers a tax refund to renters who fulfill all of these requirements:

 

  • Spent 183 days or more in the state
  • Aren’t claimed as a dependent by someone else
  • Their household income was less than $75,389
  • Starting with your 2024 taxes, if you are a renter, you can claim the Renter's Credit as part of your Minnesota Individual Income Tax return (Form M1).   You will no longer file a Renter's Property Tax Refund return (Form M1PR). This means renters who previously filed both returns won't receive a separate refund later in the year.

Go back through the state return.  One of the first questions is Tell Us About Your Living Situation.  There are two options; you need to select You rented a home.   Later in the interview, you will come to a page titled Other Minnesota Credits.  The first item is Renter's Credit.   Click Start there and enter your Certificate of Rent Paid (CRP) info.
