Deductions & credits

The Electric Vehicle credit is nonrefundable, meaning the amount of the credit cannot exceed a taxpayer's tax liability.  An electric vehicle tax credit does not carry over for individual buyers.

IRS Instructions for Form 3800 say "Only the carryforward of the qualified plug-in electric vehicle credit claimed in Part I, Section B, of 2009 through 2012 Form 8834 can be reported on Part III, line 1z."

 

If this does not apply, you could Delete Form 3800 from your return.  

 

Since we can't see your tax return in this forum, you can request an Offline Review if you need more help.
