Beginning with rent paid in tax year 2024, renters can claim a credit by completing Schedule M1RENT, with their Minnesota State Return. Previously renter's would complete Form M1PR, Homestead Credit Refund (for Homeowners) and Renter's Property Tax Refund; however, renter's should not complete Form M1PR to claim their Renter's Credit starting with tax year 2024. Additionally, you must provide your Certificate of Rent Paid (CRP) information when completing your return like you would with the previous M1PR.
