Electric vehicle

You would claim the credit, as long as this is your main home, she could not since she did not pay for the charging station. 

 

The rules for claiming the Alternative Fuel Vehicle Refueling Property are as follows:

  •  To recharge an electric vehicle, but only if the recharging property is located at the point where the vehicle is recharged. In addition, the following requirements must be met to qualify for the credit. 
  • You placed the refueling property in service during your tax year. 
  •  The original use of the property began with you. 
  • The property isn’t used predominantly outside the United States. 
  • If the property isn’t business/investment use property, the property must be installed on property used as your main home.
