The very first episode of Tax in Action dives into one of my favorite tax credits as a Floridian:
☀️ The Residential Clean Energy Credit under IRC §25D.
In this episode, you’ll learn the following:
⚖️ The legal background of §25D, including what kinds of home energy improvements qualify, and which don’t.
🗣️ The intake questions you should be asking clients when they install solar panels or other clean energy-producing property.
📝 How to report the credit correctly on Form 5695, Residential Energy Credits, and avoid common errors.
🏠 What ancillary costs, like roof upgrades, count for the credit.
I start with a real-world example, walk through the legal authority, then apply it all in a way that’s practical for everyday tax work.
