Turbo Tax Online: unable to proceed with Energy-Efficient Vehicle Charging Station (Form 8911)

user17705968274 · ‎February 8, 2026

I'm trying to claim this credit for a home charger installation, but it won't let me proceed if I answer No to the following question:
"Was the refueling property placed in service in an eligible census tract in 2025?"
My understanding that this should only apply to a commercial property, not a home.
Is anyone aware of a workaround?

The requirement that the charging station be installed in an eligible census tract must be met whether it is installed at a commercial property or a residence. There is no workaround for entering this information.
