The California renters credit, also known as the renters' credit or the renters' tax credit, is a credit available to low-income renters in the state of California who pay rent for their primary residence. The credit is intended to help offset the cost of rent for low-income individuals and families who may otherwise struggle to afford housing in California's high-priced housing market.

To be eligible for the renters credit in California, taxpayers must meet certain income and residency requirements. In order to qualify, taxpayers must be a California resident and must have paid rent for their primary residence in the state during the tax year. Taxpayers must also have a total household income that falls below a certain threshold, which is set by the state of California each year.

The amount of the renters credit that a taxpayer is eligible to receive depends on their total household income, the amount of rent they paid, and the number of dependents they have. The credit is claimed on the taxpayer's state income tax return, using Form 540 or Form 540NR, and is available to both single and married taxpayers.

One important thing to note about the California renters credit is that it is non-refundable, which means that it can only reduce a taxpayer's tax liability to zero, but it cannot result in a tax refund. Additionally, the credit is subject to certain limitations and restrictions, including the fact that it cannot be claimed in conjunction with other tax credits or deductions for rent or housing expenses.

For taxpayers who are eligible for the renters credit, it can be a valuable resource for helping to offset the cost of rent in California. By claiming the credit on their state income tax return, low-income renters can potentially save hundreds of dollars on their tax bill each year. However, it is important for taxpayers to carefully review the eligibility requirements for the credit and to make sure they are claiming it correctly on their tax return in order to receive the maximum benefit.
