Minnesota deductions, tax credits, and the personal exemption
Taxpayers in Minnesota pay one of the highest income tax rates in the country. Fortunately, Minnesota does allow a dependent exemption of up to $5,050 per dependent (phased out by higher income levels).
The standard deduction for single filers and those married filing separately is $14,575, head of household is $21,900, and all other filing statuses are allowed up to $29,150 for a standard deduction (phased out by higher income levels). If you are married filing separately, you cannot claim the standard deduction if your spouse chose to itemize. You may itemize your deductions on your Minnesota return even if you claimed the standard deduction on your federal income tax return.
Various tax credits are also available on Minnesota state returns. For example, individuals can claim the Child and Dependent Care Credit, the Child Tax Credit, and the Working Family Credit.
