Deductions & credits

I wouldn't consider it a bug. I don't think it's reasonable to expect TurboTax to figure out what census tract your charger is in, or determine whether your census tract meets the requirements. It tells you what the requirements are. You have to determine whether your installation meets them.


The first page of the interview for Energy-Efficient Vehicle Charging Station says "New for 2023, property must be located in an eligible census tract." The "Learn more" link on that line brings up a help window that describes the census tract requirements. The next screen of the interview, where you enter the cost, has a link that says "Read these important credit qualifications" and opens the same help text. See the screen shots below.
