Does LG front loading wash machine qualify for tax credit?

Answer 1

For the federal 1040 tax form and energy credit the ITEM HAS TO MEET THE BELOW REQUIREMENTS for it to qualify for the credit on your 1040 federal income tax return.

For property purchased before June 1, 2009, homeowners generally can rely on the manufacturers' certifications and Energy Star labels that were available at the time for those products. Manufacturers have been advised that they should not continue to provide certifications for property that fails to meet the new standards.

Manufacturer's Certification Statement is a signed statement from the manufacturer certifying that the product or component qualifies for the tax credit.

Manufacturers should provide these Certifications on their website. Call the manufacturer, or search their website. EPA does not have copies of the Manufacturer's Certification Statement.

Taxpayers must keep a copy of the certification statement for their records, but do not have to submit a copy with their tax return.

For the federal tax credit you would you would use the Residential energy tax credit Form 5695. Go to the IRS gov website and use the search box for it.

Your state could also have some type of rebate or credit available and you should be find out if the washing machine could qualify for the state credit by going to your state tax department website.
