If you are not seeing Form 8911 included as part of your tax return, then you may not qualify to claim the credit.
There is a very common reason that taxpayers are not eligible to claim the Alternative Fuel Vehicle Refueling Property Credit on Form 8911. It is related to the tentative minimum tax calculation.
Even though you may not be subject to Alternative Minimum Tax, it is calculated at the same time as the regular income tax. The tentative minimum tax is compared to your regular income tax on Form 8911. If the tentative minimum tax is greater than the regular tax, then the Form 8911 credit is disallowed.
The lines in question are Form 8911 line 17 and line 16. If line 17 is greater than line 16, then the credit is disallowed due to the tentative minimum tax.
Even though Form 8911 will not be included as part of your tax return because the credit is disallowed, you should be able to specify Form 8911 to be printed or previewed from the Print Center using TurboTax Online to take a look at the details. Or, go to Forms at the top of the screen if you are using a Desktop version of the program, then search for Form 8911.
