Deductions & credits

I thought that it would carry that $10k forward to succeeding years, though.  It is carrying forward about $2400, so why not that plus the $10k as well?  I thought that's how tax credits worked.

 

I don't understand why it applied $19k in credit instead of just the $9k it needed to zero the tax bill.

 

There is literally a worksheet that goes with form 5695 that clearly leads to such an outcome, but I didn't see that worksheet being a factor in your software or computations.
