Start Gathering paperwork
Tax time a cometh so start getting any paperwork together for any qualifying energy efficient home improvements you might have made in 2009 on your primary residence. Improvements such as solar, geothermal, and many windows and doors qualify under the guidelines set forth by the government early in 2009.
Paperwork most often required is your receipt or purchase contract, the sticker or paperwork that shows the energy efficiency rating for the product you purchased to ensure that the product meets the governments minimum standards, and any other supporting documentation you may have so there is no reason the government can deny your claim to any credit or deduction.
Start gathering paperwork now so you are not scrambling as April 15th approaches.
