I see a possible Turbo Tax interview issue. I bought a new furnace this year for my existing main home. The only section of this form 5695 that pertains to me is Part II Section B "Residential Energy Property Expenditures. However, the worksheet is deemed incomplete if you overide Section A having to do with insulation, doors, windows and the like. The interview asks if you have any of these items and if you put "No", it still does not skip Section A. It then automatically fills in Section A 17a,b,c,e as a "NO" which connotates that you have made these improvements ,but of course, you have no expenditures and will leave the remainder of the section blank anyway. . I believe the entire Section A should be overridden and left blank as long as you are only dealing with improvements in Section B like furnaces....I have not filed yet, but if the review process says I have an incomplete 5695 worksheet, I guess I'll deal with it more then.
Any thoughts anyone?
