Get your taxes done using TurboTax

First of all, see if you qualify for a Solar Energy Credit of 9K.  

 

If you qualify for the Solar Credit, you would deduct the amount of the credit from the Asset Cost Basis, which you would depreciate 10% of over 39 years. 

 

You could claim 10% of the interest on the solar system as a Home Office Expense each year. 

 

You can use any TurboTax above Deluxe for your return (to prepare Schedule C), though a TurboTax Desktop product is recommended if you want to have direct access to Forms and Worksheets.
