How can I get tax refund from mortgage interest and property tax paid if I don't have income last year? In California

[weixinli33]

I paid 13,200 property tax and about 6,300 mortgage interest in 2016. Can I get tax refund from those interest and property tax paid in California. I didn't have income in 2016

No you cannot ... those items are deductions not refundable credits.
