Where can you download a form for a renters tax credit?

Renters can typically download forms to file for renters' tax credits on the websites of the tax authorities for the states in which they live, according to the Maryland Department of Assessment and Taxation. Renters' tax credit forms are only available in states that grant such credits.

In some states, renters' tax credits take the form of rebates or refunds of the amount of property taxes due on the property, as Minnesota Revenue explains. For instance, in Minnesota, renters are entitled to a refund of 17 percent of any rent paid annually, since this is the amount considered equivalent to the property tax paid on the property.
