Abstract: Form 8909, Energy Efficient Appliance Credit, was developed to carry out the provisions of new Code section 45M. This new section was added by section 1334 of the Energy Policy Act of 2005 (P.L. 109-58). The new form provides a means for the eligible manufacturer/taxpayer to compute the amount of, and claim, the credit.

Emergency Justfication: Emergency approval is required because it is essential to the mission of the IRS to be able to provide taxpayers with the proper tools and information to timely meet their tax obligations. Submitting this ICR through normal processing procedures would create an undue hardship on taxpayers by not providing them the proper time to understand and comply with these new tax laws.
