Homeowners who have had a property tax increase of 12% or more, regardless of income, are eligible for special refunds. Both tenants and homeowners who meet the requirements can apply. The Minnesota Department of Revenue provides more information on eligibility and the application process.
Tenants and homeowners can file for free and submit via tax software or paper submission. Homeowners should use the information from their property tax returns, which are issued by their county each spring, according to an article published on the official website of The City of Moorhead.
According to a press release from the City of Moorhead, direct deposit is the safest way to receive a refund. The Where’s My Refund? System can process all refunds.
