I had a lot of home improvements done on my home in 2009 such as new windows, added insulation in ceiling and walls, siding and a new front door. What is allowable in terms of rebates on my 2009 taxes?


ANSWER


The BIDaWIZ Team's Answer:

See IRC 25C & 25D. You may deduct 30%, of the expenditures,

as a credit, on Form 5695, of your Form 1040; "up to" $1,500.

So if the expenditures exceed $5K, you are entitled to a $1,500

tax credit, on Form 5695. Otherwise, the credit equals 30% 

of the expenditure amount.
