Get your taxes done using TurboTax

andrew_w, 

thank you for responding, however i believe your advice is wrong.

yes, line 1 of form 5695 is where the the qualified costs of the project are listed.

however, if you read the instructions, line 7a states "Was qualified fuel cell property installed on, or in connection with, your main home ..."

and line 7b asks for the "complete address of the main home where you installed the fuel cell property."

the solar cells are not at my home, and are not directly connected to my home.

it is a community solar project, installed on property owned by the municipality (not owned by me), about 15 miles from my main home, and the fuel cell is not directly connected with my home (it is connected to the public utility district's electric grid).   however, since i own 2% of the project, 2% of the energy surplus is credited to my electric bill.

so, again, i ask:  what form and what line is used for "off-site" and "community" solar tax credit?
