I completed the Plug-In Electric Drive Motor Vehicle Tax credit section and it says my vehicle is not qualified for the tax credit. The VIN was verified on VIN Check. However, on the IRS website it states that my vehicle is qualified. My vehicle is a 2019 Hyundai Ioniq Electric Vehicle.
How do I correct this error.
Form 8834, Qualified Electric Vehicle Credit - Estimated to be available on 01/29/2020
Where did you find that date? This page:https://care-cdn.prodsupportsite.a.intuit.com/forms-availability/turbotax_fed_online_individual.html states 1/29/2020. I'd like to complete my taxes... held up on the availability of this form online...
I just opened TurboTax Deluxe and relaunched to find that you're still waiting for the updated form. When I followed the link to see when it will be available, it says "Form 8834, Qualified Electric Vehicle Credit...available." I tried to update again, but the program says I'm up to date. I need this to be able to finish my return to provide it to the Social Security Administration.
Today's date is 01/29/2020 - the date the form is supposed to be available. The screenshot below is the alert we get when clicking on the button to fill out the form. It is quite obviously... NOT ready. While all of us in this thread would like access to the form... It's probably easier to update the availability table with a new date so irate and confused users don't end up on this forum.
The form is not available until 2/05/2020, according to this Turbo Tax link. Select it to verify if this is correct..
According to this Turbo Tax link, form 8936 is not available until 2/5/2020.
That link says that form 8834 is now available (previously stated 01/29/2020). It is NOT available. I still get the notification posted above.
even in the desktop TT has not been updated for the form as of today, the IRS website shows it's ready. so it's up to TT programmers to update the program to reflect the approved form
I called the customer service phone number and after 3 hours got a call back. While the gentleman I spoke to was extremely nice, it was no use because he was experiencing the same issue when looking into the system where the electric vehicle tax credit is supposed to go. He, too, attempted to enter the information and got the same message that it wasn't ready from the IRS but then when he clicked on the link it said that the form was available. So, after waiting for 3 hours and speaking to somebody, I am no further a long. Turbotax, fix this issue ASAP please!
That link shows form 8834 available in print and e-file formats. Like others, I am stuck and can't complete my return until that form is available to complete through Turbo Tax.

This section of the program is waiting on the other forms for the vehicle tax credit to become available on 02/12/2020
Form 8910, Alternative Motor Vehicle Credit
Form 8911, Alternative Fuel Vehicle Refueling Property Credit
Form 8936, Qualified Plug-in Electric Drive Motor Vehicle Credit
My guess is that people are doing what I did...confusing the available 8834 with the as of now unavailable 8936.
My turbox tax is not updating for me to my deduction in for my car
Not all forms are available yet. To check the availability of Forms 8936 (Qualified Plug-in Electric Drive Motor Vehicle Credit) and 8834 (Qualified Electric Vehicle Credit), please click the below link:
Hiya,
So without sounding completely dumb, what's the difference between these forms?
Form 8936, Qualified Pulg-In Electric Drive Motor Vehicle Credit, is used to claim the credit currently.
Form 8834, Qualified Electric Vehicle Credit, is used only if you have carryover credits from prior years. The qualified electric vehicle credit was available for certain vehicles placed in service before 2007.
If you are claiming the credit for the first time, you would use Form 8936.
I have not received this 8834 update to my turbo tax. You say it will be ready 1-29-2020 but I have not seen it. When I OK an update your system tries to download North Carolina which I DO NOT WANT!

It is 2/8 and the form is still not available - it is available on irs and HR block do I need to switch platforms - this is frustrating
Per our updates, Form 8936 "Qualified Plug-in Electric Drive Motor Vehicle Credit" is not available until 2/12/2020.
The fact that the forms are available on the IRS website has nothing to do with any tax software program. The forms are available if you are going to download from the IRS to complete it on your own. However, e-filing is different. Once the form is finalized by the IRS, it has to be coded into the special language the software uses and has to be thoroughly tested for calculations and e-filing acceptability. IRS then has to approve it for e-file. It always takes a little longer for a form to become available for e-file in a software program. I hope this helps you understand the situation. At this point, the IRS expects to approve the form 8936 on TurboTax e-file as 02/12/2020. I truly understand your frustration and thank you for your patience.
