If this was brand new and not used and qualifies for the New EV Credit, but you are being rejected because the dealer did not do the paperwork, you can attempt to mail in your return with the bill of sale that shows the VIN and all other required information. The IRS may or may not allow you to claim the credit since the dealer did not do what they were supposed to on their end. However, you will at least be able to get your return looked at if you mail it in. They may send you a letter with a correction denying the credit, but if you want to attempt to take it, that would be the only way since the dealer didn't do their part and that is a requirement.
The sale qualifies only if:
- You buy the vehicle new.
- The seller reports required information to you at the time of sale and to the IRS.
