I purchased a 2015 Nissan Leaf in 2021, do I qualify for the form 8936 tax credit in 2022?

The year 2015 Plug-in Electric Drive Motor Vehicle isn't showing up as an option, but last year they said that they accept vehicles as old as 2011.

No, I don't believe you do.  You purchased the vehicle prior to 2023.

 

"Beginning January 1, 2023, if you buy a qualified used electric vehicle (EV) or fuel cell vehicle (FCV) from a licensed dealer for $25,000 or less, you may be eligible for a used clean vehicle tax credit..."

 

 "Purchases made before 2023 don't qualify."

 

Used Clean Vehicle Credit
