  2. Select Arizona Form 310 in the St. Credits box on the left side navigation panel.
  3. Enter applicable information for the current year's credit within the Current Year's Credit section.
    • Note: To add a second Form 310, click Add in the left side navigation panel within the Residence section.
  4. Enter credit carryover information in the Carryover from Prior Taxable Years section.

Additional Information Detailed in Form 310 Instructions:

  • Arizona law provides a solar energy credit for an individual who installs a solar energy device in his or her residence located in Arizona.
