Get your taxes done using TurboTax

If, once you found your property's 11-digit GEOID, you were able to locate your GEOID in the correct Appendix (see below), then your property is eligible for the credit if it meets the other requirements. If your property's GEOID is NOT listed in the Appendix, then it is not eligible for the credit. Listing in the Appendix is what confirms that the property qualifies. Finding the 11-digit ID is just the first step.

 

To qualify for the Alternative Fuel Vehicle Refueling Property Credit, reported on Form 8911, refueling property must be used to store or dispense clean-burning fuel or to recharge electric motor vehicles.

In addition, the property must:

  • Be placed in service during the tax year
  • Have original use that began with the taxpayer
  • Be used primarily in the U.S. and U.S. territories
  • If not business or investment use property, be installed on property used as a main home
  • Be in an eligible census tract (as of January 1, 2023)
  • Be depreciable property if not for personal use

 

For property placed in service before January 1, 2025:

  1. Locate your property on the 2015 Census Tract Identifier and copy your 11-digit census tract geographic identifier (GEOID).
  2. Look up your GEOID in Appendix A PDF. If your GEOID is not listed, then your property is not eligible for the credit.

For property placed in service after January 1, 2025:

  1. Locate your property on the 2020 Census Tract Identifier and copy your 11-digit census tract geographic identifier (GEOID).
  2. Look up your GEOID in Appendix B PDF. If your GEOID is not listed, then your property is not eligible for the credit.
