From 3468 is not handling less than 1 MW systems correctly. It is telling me I cannot e-file and must complete form 7220 (PWA certification) but that is incorrect. <1 MW gives an exception to PWA. When will this be fixed?

    If you checked the box on line 7a or 8b to claim an increased tax credit amount in Part V or Part VI, you must also attach a statement (increased credit amount statement) for each facility, energy storage technology, or energy project, to your return.   Box 8a should not require Form 7220 and we will get that updated.  

     

    The statement should include the following:

     

    1. Your name, taxpayer identification number, the facility description (including the owner information, if different from the filer from Part I, line 3b(i) and 3b(ii)), and, if applicable, the IRS-issued registration number from Part I, line 1.
    2. If you checked the box on line 7a, a statement that the qualified facility or energy project has a maximum net output of less than 1 MW (as measured in ac) or equivalent thermal energy.
    3. For the facility, energy storage technology, or energy project that began construction before January 29, 2023, indicate that you met the continuity requirement under the physical work test or the 5% safe harbor to establish the beginning of construction.
    4. For the facility, energy storage technology, or energy project that began construction on or after January 29, 2023, where you qualify for the increased credit amount based on the PWA requirements, complete Form 7220 and attach it to your return.
    5. A declaration, applicable to the statement and any accompanying documents, signed by you, or signed by a person currently authorized to bind you in such matters, in the following form: “Under penalties of perjury, I declare that I have examined this statement, including accompanying documents, and to the best of my knowledge and belief, the facts presented in support of this statement are true, correct, and complete.”
