I purchased an EV in 2024, transferred the credit to the dealer but didn't file form 8936 with my tax return. Received my refund but need instructions to amend & add form

I started the amendment and could not find an option to add Form 8936 under deductions and credits. I did a search for 8936 and no instructions or options to add in amendment are given.

Hi MinhT1, I tried that but for some reason it would only load a topic about that form. With my amendment started I looked on the left pane and there was a menu that said "Tax Tools" and I was able to find and file the form there. Thank you for the response 🙂
