Get your taxes done using TurboTax
I'm also having this issue. I've deleted both 5695 forms, cleared my cache and tried again. I'm trying to claim new windows and doors improvement costs for joint occupants.
After entering the cost of the windows/doors. I'm asked, "Did you have any of these residential energy property costs in 2025?", I answer no (as windows/doors are not on this list). The next question is "Improvements or replacements installed for enabling property". I am forced to select something to continue, so I select "Windows and skylights". I leave the QMID and cost fields under "Enter information about panelboards, subpanelboards, branch circuits, or feeders." blank.
During the federal review stage, I get the error: "Form 5695: Cost of enabling property must have a value when any enabled property code (A-G) is selected.". If I go back and fill in the QMID and cost fields on that previously mentioned step (about panelboards, etc), I get a new error: "Form 5695: Cost of enabling property should not have a value since the energy property was not installed by you in connection with a home in the United States.". I have no idea how to resolve this bug.
Pulling my hair out trying to get this to work. I'm starting to regret self-filing with Turbotax.
