Question

How do I apply for a federal energy tax credit on my 2009 federal income tax for five new windows I pruchased and installed myself. The energy performance rating on the windows is a U - Factor of 0.3.

Accepted Answer

Hi,

for technical requirements and eligibility - please see here - http://www.energystar.gov/index.cfm?c=tax_credits.tx_index

Normally - when you purchased windows - for eligible items - you should get a certificate that this purchase is eligible for deduction - keep this certificate for your record.

 

To claim a credit - use IRS Form 5695 ( instructions included)

Let me know if you need any help.
