Due to an error, some TurboTax customers received the Used Clean Vehicle Credit when the vehicle didn't meet the qualifications for the credit. As a result, these customers underpaid their taxes. 

If we notified you, we recommend you submit an amended federal tax return as soon as possible to avoid additional penalties and interest on the unpaid balance.

To correct your return, please follow the steps below:

    • Revisit the Energy-Efficient Vehicles section under Deductions and Credits and delete the used 2023/2024 vehicle. 

    • Enter “TO CORRECT THE USED CLEAN VEHICLE CREDIT” as the reason for amending.

  • Follow the instructions provided by TurboTax to efile the amended federal tax return and pay the balance due. 

  • Save a copy of your amended federal tax return for your records.

If you have questions, call 844-333-2161 (Monday–Friday, 5 AM to 5 PM PT) to speak with a specialist. Mention 2024 Used Clean Vehicle Credit so they know what you’re calling about.
