New Windows

I spent $21,000 on all new energy efficient windows on our house in October 2021. I got basically nothing as far as a tax break on that. Can I claim them this next go with the new tax breaks?

No. You cannot put a 2021 purchase on a 2022 tax return. If you did not enter the window purchase on your 2021 return you can amend your 2021 return.

The reason I didn't bother claiming them for the 2020 tax season in January 2021 is because the credit was $200 and made zero difference and I would have had to take the standard deduction anyway. If I file an amended 2021 return, am I still only going to get the $200 tax credit for the $21k worth of new energy efficient windows?
