My e-return was rejected because of a problem with form 5695. The error code from turbotax states that an address must be entered if checking "yes" for energy property tax expenditures.  I checked "yes"  line 21a and 21 b regarding energy property expenditures, but when asked to enter my address, the form is grey and no address can be entered. I'm using the desktop Mac version.

    If you go directly to the form, can you enter anything in Section B of the Form 5695?    I was able to tab through each of the fields and the PDF matches my entry with no errors.

    Go back into the interview section and click on Deductions and Credits>>home Energy Credits which is under Your Home.  Walk through those steps to you get to the screen that says Lets Make Sure We Have The Right Address for Your Home. Enter the address of the home where you installed your energy property.

    Vanessa thanks. That ALMOST worked. I did choose "no" under "is this the correct address" and typed in my address. However when reviewing the final pdf of my return before e-filing again, only the first 2 numbers of my "number and street" show up, not the whole number and street. I was able to enter the city, state and zip, but not the entire street number or street name.
