What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Indiana
I am 80 yr old retired on fixed income. I pay very little in taxes. I had new geothermal unit installed last year, and was told at that time that I would get $1500 back when I filed my taxes. As my taxes have been prepared, I am now learning that I do not infact get that money back as a refund, but the fed gov will keep the amount above my taxes payable to be carried over to future years. Is that information correct? Please understand that I had planned to use this money to pay off the loan I had to take to put in the unit, and probably won't live to see the end of my "tax credit" as that will be approx 13 yrs in the future!
Is there an exception for the elderly with low tax liability or was I just misled when I purchased this?What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
