Incorrect in a lot of places. Property tax refunds are often based on income so your parents may have an income level that makes them unable to claim this property tax refund.
You made an honest mistake, just buck up, pay the bill and move on.

huh? 😕

Ha, I missed an important word in that post! 😱 MN refunds are on a sliding scale based on your income, as income goes up, your refund amount goes down.
OP,
Quick solution to seeing whether or not your parents would even be eligible if you could somehow swing it would be to get their total household income from their return and check the tables in the instructions for the MRP1 form that indicate what the refund amount would be. I suspect your parents income will lead to a refund amount of $0.

Ok, so this is primarily a state issue.

Should be, unless the OP is leaving out other details...the CRP (Certificate of Rent Paid) and MPR1 are both MN forms I've dealt with in the past month 😉
Seems like the OP also has some Federal issues as a result of filing independently incorrectly, seeing as the IRS is apparently involved...
Input on this OP?

BTW, I speak only from experience filing in MN, I bow to CPA's knowledge beyond that😀

if the money is really that important to you, you would find a CPA instead of asking ATOT
