* *"Track your refund."* You can track where your property tax refund is in the process by using our "Where?s My Refund?" system [ [link removed] ]. The system will show you which of the four stages your refund is in and whether you need to take any action to allow us to complete the processing of your refund. You will see the date your refund was issued when it is finished processing.
* *"Property tax relief for senior citizens."* The Senior Citizens? Property Tax Deferral Program allows seniors whose property taxes are high relative to their incomes an option to stay in their homes by deferring a portion of the property taxes they owe each year. If they are currently in the program, qualified seniors may claim a property tax refund and it will apply to their outstanding loan balance.

Each tax return is different, and we review every return to verify the information on the return. Some returns may take longer to review and process than others.

*New filing method for renters begins next year*

Beginning next year, renters will claim the Renter's Credit on your 2024 Minnesota Individual Income Tax Return. To get the credit, you must provide Certificate of Rent Paid information when filing your income tax return.

More information on this change will be provided later this year*.*
