IRS set notice that return was corrected "adjusted the Residential Energy Credit claimed on your return because you either calculated or transferred the credit from Form 5695, Residential Energy Credits, incorrectly."  No issue with the QMID code and all numbers are correct.  Any thoughts/suggestions on how Turbo Tax failed.  Thanks!

    The calculated Residential Energy Credit is reported on Form 1040 Line 5a. You might review your copy of Form 5695 to confirm the calculations and verify the credit from Line 15 of this form is the same as Line 5a on Form 1040. If you determine that there was a calculation error or that the credit wasn't reported correctly, see this link: How do I submit a claim under the TurboTax 100% Accurate Calculation Guarantee?
