Question: Can I get another solar federal tax credit if I move?

If I purchased solar panels for my house now and received the 30% credit, but then 10 years from now I move, would I be able to get the credit again if I put panels on that next house?
Your right that I’m basically asking if it extends to multiple projects. I swear I heard before that it was a one time deal before, but I think the context was if I were to get a solar electric system AND a solar water heater. But I would think that if you moved you would get the same deal again.

Answer: The 30% credit would be expired in 10 years, but that’s not the point. The question is, can you take additional credits for more than one project? I’d suggest going to irs.gov and downloading form 5695 and its instructions. It used to be that you could do as many projects as you want, even on the same house, except that the total credit was capped. I’m not sure what happens now that the cap is removed.

Question: How does re-authorizing the Patriot Act “create jobs”?? Why is it included in Dems job bill?

http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0210/32744.html

Democratic leaders are pushing a sweeping jobs bill to the Senate floor, but they have yet to forge a bipartisan deal on the Obama administration’s new top priority.

A draft of the roughly $80 billion bill, obtained by POLITICO, has a wide range of tax credits and job creation ideas, but it also includes provisions unrelated to jobs, including a reauthorization of the Patriot Act, infusion of new money to the Highway Trust Fund and extension of the so-called “doc fix.”

Answer: It creates domestic surveillance jobs. Which millions of out of work Americans will be more than happy to perform.

For any mass-scale tyranny to succeed, the population must be coerced into policing itself. Neighbor against neighbor.
