  4. Select the appropriate housing category on Line 7 and enter its percentage. Multiply Line 6 by that percentage to get net rent paid on Line 8.

Common mistakes

  • Leaving out landlord information. The form warns that missing landlord information may cause a denial or delay. The landlord’s street address and phone number must be completed.
  • Using a P.O. box for the rental unit. Enter the physical address instead.
  • Not providing a form for every rental location. One Form MO-CRP is required for each location where you lived.
  • Forgetting Form 5674. Attach a completed Verification of Rent Paid.
  • Including housing assistance instead of only what you paid. If you received assistance, enter the amount of rent you paid.
  • Overlooking the property-tax restriction. The form says you are not eligible for a Property Tax Credit if the facility you rent from does not pay property tax.
