About This Program
The Grant Map catalogs Minnesota Homestead Classification & Credit Refund in its St. Paul, MN research directory. The record carries audience tags for homeowners; those tags do not establish eligibility or current service coverage.
Minnesota's Homestead Credit Refund program provides a property tax refund to owner-occupants whose property taxes exceed a threshold percentage of their household income. A regular refund based on income and taxes paid, and a special refund for taxes that increased more than 12% (up to $1,000) are both available. Applying for homestead classification also reduces your tax rate.
Regular refund eligibility: 2025 household income below $142,490. Special refund: no income limit, up to $1,000 if property taxes increased 12%+ year-over-year. File Form M1PR.
