Not sure what your question is but since you will have to print, ink sign and mail in the form when using the TT system may I suggest you file this online directly here :  https://www.revenue.state.mn.us/filing-property-tax-refund

Look on your property tax bill:

Class 1a Residential Homestead

Class 1b Blind/Disabled/Surviving Spouse of Paraplegic Vet Homestead

I live in Minneapolis, MN in Hennepin County. My property tax statement does not provide any codes. For "Class", it just says "Homestead". The MN Property Tax Refund form asks for a CODE; on TurboTax all the codes are listed in the drop down, but it doesn't state what each code means. The State does not provide the codes and their meaning on their sites either. A person has to search all over internet to find. Stumbled across a random Intuit link that provided the codes.

  • Code 1a is for residential homestand

  • Code 2b agriculture non-homestead
  • Code 2c non-homestead rural vacant land
  • Code 3a commercial/industrial/public utility
  • Code 4a apartments
  • Code 4bb residential non-homestead single unit
  • Code 4c seasonal recreational residential
