First, be sure that your impact windows qualify for the credit.  In order to claim the credit, you will need what is known as a QMID code for the manufacturer of your windows.  Those that are Energy Star Most Efficient certified impact windows can qualify you for 30% of the cost of the windows up to a maximum of $600.

 

If your windows qualify for the credit, you will need to file Form 5695 with your return, which is not included with the Basic edition of TurboTax.  You would need to upgrade to the Deluxe version in order to file this form on your return.
