Energy Credit causing Returns to Reject

ldh312 — Sun, 01 Mar 2026 00:41:18 GMT

My returns were rejected because of an issue with Form 5695 energy efficient home improvement tax credit form. Is this a turbo tax problem? It says to try again after March 6. I have large refunds coming and this is just maddening.

Please continue to update your TurboTax program and come back and try again after March 06.

TurboTax is waiting for an IRS update regarding Form 5695 to fix the calculation related to the cost of enabling property. The scheduled resolution date is around March 6, 2026. If your return was rejected, you have to wait until this update is deployed to re-file or submit your return to ensure an accurate processing of your credit.

TurboTax Online updates for new tax laws and other features, but they are done automatically in your web browser. You do not have to manually update like in TurboTax desktop software.

If you are using TurboTax Desktop, you can manually check for updates for your TurboTax program by clicking on "Online" in the black bar near the top of your screen and selecting "Check for Updates."

Please return to Community if you have any additional information or questions and we would be happy to help.
