Per  Claiming Homestead Credit  the documents you need to attach to your application are your completed 2019 rent certificate(s) and/or a copy of your 2019 property tax bill(s).

 

If you have questions on the Homestead Credit you can go to Claiming Homestead Credit.

You need to submit Schedule H along with the following:

  • Other homestead credit notes, schedules, legal documents
  • Schedule GL but only if you sold your home during 2019
  • Copies of any wage statements

In filling out Homestead credit info, Turbo Tax was great and offered to help attach the pdf of the manually completed rent certificate. I skipped it at the time to go to 'form' view, but now I cannot get the program to help attach the document again for efiling like it initially was going to do. My oops, but how do I get back to attaching this form for efiling?  Will it ask again right before the final ok for efiling?

You are not able to attach a PDF in TurboTax. If you have additional forms, you will need to print and mail them.

I didn’t think so either, but right after completing that section, a screen popped that said “it looks like you need to attach a form for the Homestead credit”, and it offered to help attach a pdf file with a drop-down bar to allow me to get the file off my PC.

Why did the software offer to help with this if it isn't possible?  It sure would be a great feature to have!
