Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit - second home

I have a vacation home that is only used by me and wife.  We purchased a energy efficient electric heat pump in 2023.  I believe that we are eligible for the residence energy credit.  How do I input this into turbo tax 2023?

Some TurboTax customers may be experiencing an issue with their energy improvements not qualifying for home energy tax credits when they are made to a second home or not made to their “main home,” even when some of the energy improvements should qualify.

Hi @MonikaK1, do you know when this will be updated. It’s been WEEKS since turbo tax released this form and first acknowledged this issue. The most recent notice from Turbo Tax currently live about this issue is a week old. https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/energy-tax-credits-deductions/energy-imp...
There was also a notice about it posted before that one above that was taken down. 

I checked H&R Block software and theirs is working correctly.  I’ve used turbo tax for years, so it would be a shame to switch over, but I’m not sure what choice I have at this point if a fix isn’t coming soon or if Turbo Tax won’t even acknowledge a potential fix date.
