Deductions & credits
Update: I'm getting the same error I received the first time.
Federal return rejectionThere is incorrect or incomplete information on Form 5695, Energy Efficient Home Improvement section, Enabling Property part on the Federal returnReject Code /Return/ReturnData/IRS5695/EgyEffcntHmImprvCrGrp/EnablingPropertyGrp/PanelboardCktFeederCostAmt
Description of error:
There is incorrect or incomplete information on Form 5695, Energy Efficient Home Improvement section, Enabling Property part on the Federal return
What needs to be done:
We have an update regarding your tax return. Depending on which version of TurboTax you are using, please follow the steps below to complete your filing: TurboTax: 1. Log in to TurboTax 2. Go to your Federal Return 3. Navigate to the Deductions and section 4. Follow through as before to the Energy efficient home improvements topic 5. Answer as before until the 'Did you install improvements or replacements for enabling property?' Answer Yes 6. Select all that apply for 'Improvements or replacements installed for enabling property' - a selection must be made if an amount and/or QMID is entered. At least one checkbox must be checked. Alternately, remove the entries for amount and QMID if they don't apply. 7. Continue as before 8. Complete review and retransmit your return. ProSeries: Verify the entries for Form 5695, Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit, If enabled property improvements are claimed, the type of enabled property is a required field. Please review the reason for the reject. If the reject continues, you may want to file this return via U.S. Mail: print and mail it to the appropriate taxing authority.
It wants me to answer "yes" to installing improvements or replacements for enabling property, which is not correct.
Hi,
So your suggestion is actually what I did the first time (at least I thought so). I completed the section once again, and it looks a bit different this time, so we shall see what happens. Thank you!
