Deductions & credits
You would not enter the total cost of the solar system again on your 2023 tax return. Instead, there should be a credit carryover amount from your 2022 tax return that can be used for your 2023 return.
The amount of the carryforward should be included automatically if you used TurboTax to prepare your 2022 return. Otherwise, take a look at your 2022 tax return and find Form 5695. Line 16 should show the amount of credit being carried forward to 2023.
As you go through the Home Energy Credit section of TurboTax, keep progressing through the screens until you reach one that asks if you Have a 2022 Home Energy Credit to Carry Forward. When you say 'yes' to this question, there will be a box to enter the number from your 2022 Form 5695 line 16. This will apply the credit to your 2023 return.
