State tax filing

Unfortunately, you'll need to print and mail your Massachusetts state return to claim this credit.  To do this,

  1. You'll need to complete Schedule EC yourself.  You can download and print it from Schedule EC, Solar and Wind Energy Credit.
  2. Once you've completed Schedule EC, you'll need to enter the credit amount, within TurboTax, on the MA Credits screen as a "Business related non-refundable credit."  Disregard that the fact that you're not a business, you just need to get this data into TurboTax.
  3. Select "Solar and Wind Energy Credit."  and enter any relevant amounts.
  4. TurboTax will generate Schedule CMS for you.
  5. When your tax return is complete, print it and mail, since you're not able to eFile with the energy credit form.
