Get your taxes done using TurboTax

The maximum credit for the wood stove is $300. The maximum Nonbusiness Energy Property Credit for all items (doors, windows, furnaces, etc.), including your wood stove, for all years is $500. Did you perhaps take the credit in a previous year? Also, this isn't a refundable credit, so if your tax liability is already 0 this credit can't make it any lower.
