When filing our income tax, Turbotax did not propose to fill IRS 8936 form

TurbTax for 2022 tax filing shows TESLA, Chevrolet, and Cadillac no longer qualify for this credit. Anyone is filing 2022 tax now ?

@Dingzx1 for 2022, that was correct. Until the rules related to the Inflation Reduction Act rolled out in 2023, these vehicles had used up their tax credit allotment under the old laws. 2022 Turbo Tax is correct. For 2023 tax filings that will be different .
