Renters credit in New Hampshire

Varies

Can Renters Get a Tax Break in New Hampshire?

Short answer: No: New Hampshire doesn't offer a renter's credit or rent rebate. New Hampshire has no tax on wages and no state renter credit or rent rebate. The state's Low and Moderate Income Homeowners Property Tax Relief program is for homeowners only, and the interest and dividends tax was repealed beginning in 2025. New Hampshire has no statewide sales tax, which helps renters' budgets more than any credit would.

Rent on your own home isn't deductible on your federal return; the exceptions are a home office used for your business or renting out part of the place you rent.

Records to keep: Keep your lease, rent receipts or a landlord rent certificate, and proof of household income. Check your state's current-year form and deadline before you apply.
