How do I claim the Alternative Vehicle Refueling Property Credit for my EV charger? I am in an eligible Census tract but it shows my tax credit as $0.

The credit is non-refundable.  Some tax credits are refundable. If a taxpayer's tax bill is less than the amount of a refundable credit, they can get the difference back in their refund.  Some taxpayers who aren't required to file may still want to do so to claim refundable tax credits.  Not all tax credits are refundable, however.   For nonrefundable tax credits, once a taxpayer's liability is zero, the taxpayer won't get any leftover amount back as a refund.    You can preview your Form 1040 to see if there is an amount on Line 22 (tax liability).

You can also look at Form 8911 in your return to see how it is limited.   More info -  Nonrefundable tax credits
