More about the Kentucky Form 5695-K Individual Income Tax Tax Credit

KENTUCKY ENERGY EFFICIENCY PRODUCTS TAX CREDIT (FORM 5695–K)—This nonrefundable credit expired 01/01/16. Thus, any credit carry forwards were limited to tax year 2016. Therefore, Form 5695-K is no longer needed and has been eliminated.

We last updated the Kentucky Energy Efficiency Products Tax Credit (OBSOLETE) in March 2021, and the latest form we have available is for tax year 2019.

Form 5695-K is a Kentucky Individual Income Tax form. States often have dozens of even hundreds of various tax credits, which, unlike deductions, provide a dollar-for-dollar reduction of tax liability. Some common tax credits apply to many taxpayers, while others only apply to extremely specific situations. In most cases, you will have to provide evidence to show that you are eligible for the tax credit, and calculate the amount of the credit to which you are entitled.

About the Individual Income Tax

The IRS and most states collect a personal income tax, which is paid throughout the year via tax withholding or estimated income tax payments.

Most taxpayers are required to file a yearly income tax return in April to both the Internal Revenue Service and their state's revenue department, which will result in either a tax refund of excess withheld income or a tax payment if the withholding does not cover the taxpayer's entire liability. Every taxpayer's situation is different - please consult a CPA or licensed tax preparer to ensure that you are filing the correct tax forms!

Historical Past-Year Versions of Kentucky Form 5695-K

We have a total of five past-year versions of Form 5695-K in the TaxFormFinder archives, including for the previous tax year. Download past year versions of this tax form as PDFs here:
