Question

Solar Panel Credit

I have been trying to get the solar panel credit for the past three years and the credit is always $0. Can someone explain why I am not getting the credit?

Level 15

You probably have no tax liability. The credit is nonrefundable, so if you don't have any tax liability, no credit will be applied. You can carry over the credit until you have a tax liability.

See this link for more info on how it works.

Pardon my ignorance but what do you mean with tax liability? which line is that on the 1040?

Level 15

Tax liability is on Line 24 of Form 1040.
