If filing with Form RI-1040, your property tax relief credit will decrease any income tax due or increase any income tax refund. What is meant by “bank account withdrawals” - The term “bank account withdrawals” means withdrawals made by any persons of a household from a bank account to pay rent, property taxes or other personal expenses for the year. Report this amount on line 33. This is not classified as additional taxable income, but it is understood that some individuals may use prior deposits to pay current year rent, property tax or other personal expenses. As with all reported items on this return, documentation may be requested. If you are not required to file a Rhode Island income tax return, Form RI-1040H may be filed by itself without attaching it to a Rhode Island income tax return. However, Form RI-1040H must be filed by April 15, 2024. What is meant by a “dependent” - The term “dependent” means any person living in the household who is under the age of 18 who can be claimed by someone else on their tax return. Your property tax relief claim should be filed as soon as possible after December 31, 2023. However, no claim for the year 2023 will be allowed unless such claim is filed by April 15, 2024. For additional filing instructions, see R.I. Gen. Laws § 44-33. Mail your property tax relief claim to the Rhode Island Division of Taxation - One Capitol Hill - Providence, RI 02908-5806.

Even if you are seeking a filing extension for your Rhode Island income tax return, RI1040, Form RI-1040H must be filed by April 15, 2024. An extension of time to file Form RI-1040, does NOT extend the time to file Form RI-1040H. WHO MAY QUALIFY To qualify for the property tax relief credit you must meet all of the following conditions: a) You must be sixty-five (65) years of age or older and/or disabled. b) You must have been domiciled in Rhode Island for the entire calendar year 2023. c) Your household income must have been $37,870.00 or less. d) You must have lived in a household or rented a dwelling that was subject to property taxes. e) You must be current on property tax and rent payments due on your homestead for all prior years and on any current installments.

If there are multiple individuals within a household, the taxable and non-taxable income of all household members must be included in part 5 of this return. If the household income of all members is less than or equal to the $37,870.00 threshold, the credit may still be claimed, but only by one member of the household. The right to file a claim does not survive a person's death; therefore a claim filed on behalf of a deceased person cannot be allowed. If the claimant dies after having filed a timely claim, the amount thereof will be disbursed to another member of the household as determined by the Tax Administrator.

It may consist of a part of a multi-dwelling, a multi-purpose building or another shelter in which people live. It may be an apartment, a houseboat, a mobile home or a farm.

What is meant by "rent paid for occupancy only" - The term "rent paid for occupancy only" means the gross rent paid only for the right of occupying your homestead.

Form 1040H is a Rhode Island Individual Income Tax form. States often have dozens of even hundreds of various tax credits, which, unlike deductions, provide a dollar-for-dollar reduction of tax liability. Some common tax credits apply to many taxpayers, while others only apply to extremely specific situations. In most cases, you will have to provide evidence to show that you are eligible for the tax credit, and calculate the amount of the credit to which you are entitled.

About the Individual Income Tax

The IRS and most states collect a personal income tax, which is paid throughout the year via tax withholding or estimated income tax payments.

Most taxpayers are required to file a yearly income tax return in April to both the Internal Revenue Service and their state's revenue department, which will result in either a tax refund of excess withheld income or a tax payment if the withholding does not cover the taxpayer's entire liability. Every taxpayer's situation is different - please consult a CPA or licensed tax preparer to ensure that you are filing the correct tax forms!
