Not that I'm recommending this, but a fourth option is to list a date prior to October 1, 2025 for the placed into service date. When I do that, the credit is calculated correctly.
I'm hesitant to submit information that doesn't match the report provided by Tesla but I guess if audited, I could just explain that Intuit refused to correct their defective software.
I'm still hoping that this will be corrected within the next few weeks. You would think Intuit would be facing a class action lawsuit if a significant number of customers overpay $7500 in federal taxes due to an error in their software and incorrect advice provided by their help chat.
