Can we use MACRS for 5-year depreciation for year 2017 tax, in additional to Form 5695, on the solar panel installed on residential house Dec 2016 ?
We installed the solar system Dec 2016 and filed the Form 5695 for the Federal credit in Year 2016 tax return. Recently, we received a phone call from a solar energy association who suggest us that we can use MACRS for 5-year depreciation on the solar panel to reduce our tax liability in next 5 years. Although it’s a residential house that installed solar system but any excess electricity generated from solar sell to local electric company. This is a business behavior. Is it a true statement? If so, how to get help from Turbo tax ?
