Renters credit in Oklahoma

Can Renters Get a Tax Break in Oklahoma?
Short answer: No: Oklahoma doesn't offer a renter's credit or rent rebate. Oklahoma has no state tax credit or rebate specifically for renters; its property tax relief claim (Form 538-H) is for homeowners. Renters can still claim the Sales Tax Relief credit (Form 538-S), $40 per qualified exemption, with household income of $20,000 or less, or $50,000 or less if they have a dependent, are 65+, or are disabled. Lower-income renters can still claim Oklahoma's earned income credit: 5% of the federal EITC.
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.
