I am installing solar PV systems on two homes I own this year, 2016. Am I eligible for the 30% tax credit on both?

One home in Tenn and the other in New Hampshire.

If you use both homes as a personal residence, the answer is yes. You should file a single Form 5695 and add the two credits together.

You are not allowed to take the credit on rental or investment properties you own.
