Short Statement: Form 8909, Energy Efficient Appliance Credit, provides a means for the eligible manufacturer/taxpayer to compute the amount of, and claim, the credit. The following changes were made to the form in accordance with IRC section 45M, as amended by P.L. 110-343, Division B, section 305. 1. Part II, we removed Type A clothes washer manufactured in calendar year 2008 since it is no longer applicable for 2009 (IRC 45M(b)(2)). 2. Part II, we removed Type A refrigerator manufactured in calendar year 2008 since is is no longer applicable for 2009(IRC 45M(b)(3)). 3. Part IV, we added new lines (21b-21i) to reflect the additional limitations for the aggregate credit allowed (IRC 45M(e)(1)). Taxpayers are required to limit the aggregate credit amount (cannot exceed $75,000,000) by all prior years beginning January 1, 2008. These changes resulted in a total burden increase of 51 hours.
