Note: I have deleted form 5695 and answered all of the Home Energy Credit interview questions three separate times before posting this 'Request for Help' form Turbo Tax.
After answering all the interview questions for deductions and credits for Home Energy Credits - Form 5695 is not being populated/filled out properly. The software is giving me credit for Solar Panel Project I installed; but it is not giving me credit for the Heat Pump Water Heater that I installed. In the 'forms' area, Form 5695 is flagged with a red exclamation point, and is labeled as "(Not Done)".
Upon inspection of the line items on the form, I noticed the following issues:
Line 21a and 21b are not marked as Yes or No, even though I answered questions in the interview section as 'Yes'
Line 21c has my correct address listed - BUT - it is Red Text on a Pink background (indicating some type of issue).
Line 29h is filled in with a '0' - BUT - It should be filled in with '596' - BECAUSE - line 29g is 1,988 AND line 29h should be Line 29g multiplied by 0.30 (1,988 X 0.3 = 596).
Line 30 should be 596 - BUT - it is '0' Since line 29h is improperly filled out with a '0'.

Having the same issue. Spend over an hour trying to figure out what was going on. Tried deleting and re-entering the information but the form still doesn't generate properly and doesn't properly apply my deduction.
There is a bug in 5695. Turbo Tax has acknowledged it but says it won't be fixed until after March 6 or 8 due to the IRS releasing an updated to the form instructions as well.
