EV Tax Credit Question

xhrisgio | 2026-02-25 21:12 | 11 views

Hello Y'all! I bought a Model Y Juniper right before the EV Tax credit ended in September and took delivery of the vehicle in early October. I applied the tax credit during the purchase of the vehicle, as many of you did. However, since I'm required to file form 8936 Schedule A, it asks me to enter the date when the vehicle was placed in service (Part 1 - Line 3), which would technically be in October, but if I select "No" on Line 5, it would not allow me to use this schedule to figure a credit amount. I know I'm not requesting extra credit as it has already been used, but I also don't want to owe anything to the IRS due to improper documentation. For those who took delivery after Sept 30, how did you fill out these lines? Thanks in advance!

This is a perfect question to ask AI. I pasted your question into Gemini and it seemed to give great step by step instructions on how this works.

I tried asking it something similar but it didn’t give a solid answer. I’ll try pasting this and see what it generates
