    Can someone do a video on the USED car credit? I’ve been trying to understand it, especially for 2024.

      It's covered in this video briefly but we'll look at more in-depth in the future! Mechanics are fairly similar to the new credit just lower price cap ($25k) and the vehicle must be two years or older to qualify. In 2024 dealers enrolled with the IRS' transfer program can also offer it at point of sale.

      @@outofspecguide thanks for the reply! I think what confuses me is whether or not Chinese sourced batteries will qualify or not. As an example… will I be able to apply this to a standard range model 3 if one came available at this price point? I’ve been waiting for fueleconomy.gov(or whatever it is) to update their website for clarity. It being available at point of sale was another question I was curious about. Thanks again

    If you could do a video about the used credit at point of sale specifically, I would love that. My local Dodge dealership has three vehicles that should qualify for the credit. However, they know nothing about this program and don't seem to care to learn about it when I talk to them.
    I don't know if they're trying really hard to sell the vehicles without the credit or what. But I live in northeast Arkansas and EV's that aren't Teslas don't fly off the shelves, exactly. They have a Leaf I drove back in September and loved that is still on the lot. The deal didn't work out in September, but with this 4k point of sale credit, I would love to make it work out.
    I think if someone made a video about the specifics of just the Used point of sale credit, it would get a lot of views. People are interested and dealerships don't seem to want to try too hard to shed their ignorance.

      @Kermoedi77, same situation here in Houston, Tx. I have tried many different places but all are clueless and don’t seem to care. Only people in the finance departments know what I’m talking about and they have no timeline for when the pos will finally work so I’m just waiting for the dealers to get their act together. I mean, it’s their actual job and they can’t get it right, real professionals in that industry…🙄

    So I’ve been researching the used EV tax credit at the “point of sale” and hidden dealer fees will count towards the “purchase price” of the vehicle so make sure when you’re shopping for a used EV, that y’all take notice of dealer fees like the one that I came across here in Houston. The dealer stated on the listing page that ALL the cars they sell come with a paint protection and lo Jack system installed that will be added to the final price of the car even if you are paying cash and don’t want it. Only government fees won’t affect the price for the “price cap” such as TT&L but dealer fees will. Read the fine print.

    Keep in mind that since this is a "non" refundable tax credit, you can not take the full value of this credit during tax time if your tax lability is not the full amount. However, if you transfer the tax credit at time of sale to the dealer, you will get the full tax credit amount even if you don't normally qualify for this much of a tax lability.
    The take-away - make sure to get the tax credit at time of sale and don't wait to claim in your taxes UNLESS you are over the cutoff for the credit at time of sale.

    We just bought a used 2016 Nissan Leaf & the Ford dealer where we bought it gave us the Used EV Credit up front (point of sale). Basically you sign the credit over to the dealer & he takes the money off the price. My question is there anything I have to do on my end at Tax time? Are there any forms I need to fill out or send to the IRS or am I done since the credit was signed over to the dealer?

      It's down to if you use the vehicle for business or personal use. The point-of-sale tax credit (and general consumer credit) isn't meant for vehicles used for more than 49% business use, which would include contract work like ride-sharing.

    • @normt430
      @normt430 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I believe it is regarding how an asset is depreciated. If you are ride sharing and put on over 9,000 miles or more you would usually claim standard mileage deduction of .65 cents a mile over actual expensive. Most rideshare/gig economy will receive a 1099 and be taxed at personal level.

      You are able to transfer your credit to a point of sale a limited number of times, I think it’s twice for married filing jointly, but you can have unlimited numbers of tax time tax credits if you are eligible, though only up to your tax liability. At least that’s my understanding; ask your CPA to know for sure.

    I have heard from multiple people that the Tesla Model Y RWD qualifies for the tax credit including fellow credible youtubers. Even on Tesla's website it states all models qualify. My biggest confusion is that it states on the IRS website that there is a 2023 "All Wheel Drive". There only was a "RWD" or a "Long Range" model. It is hard to tell what the true terminology is for the standard Model Y. But, with that being said I really hope the RWD gets the credit because I ordered it on Dec. 21st of last year and if I wouldn't get the credit when it was supposed to be here by Dec. 29th I will be extremely upset.

      They may be able to take the PoS credit if the IRS portal allows them to, but if they are above the limit in the sales year or the year before, the IRS's language specifically states that they will have to return a credit they received if they come in above the max income limit. The "no recapture" language is only for claimers without the tax liability.

      No recapture only for liability. If you have adjusted gross income above the caps and fraudulently claim the credit you are liable to recapture.

      26 USC 30D: Clean Vehicle Credit
      5) Recapture
      The Secretary shall, by regulations, provide for recapturing the benefit of any credit allowable under subsection (a) with respect to any property which ceases to be property eligible for such credit.
      "(10) Recapture
      "In the case of any taxpayer who has made an election described in paragraph (1) with respect to a new clean vehicle and received a payment described in paragraph (2)(C) from an eligible entity, if the credit under subsection (a) would otherwise (but for this subsection) not be allowable to such taxpayer pursuant to the application of subsection (f)(10), the tax imposed on such taxpayer under this chapter for the taxable year in which such vehicle was placed in service shall be increased by the amount of the payment received by such taxpayer."

    Until Tesla enrolls why in the plan buyers should hold off.

    what happens when the Tesla has to be bought back as a lemon and the $7,500 was used at point of sale? Does Tesla have to provide this back to the purchaser at time of buyback? It wouldn't make sense for Tesla to get to keep the $7,500, that would be unjust enrichment and would not be right to do to the buyer.

      Also, this return is occuring after 30 days... which says the tax credit stays with the original buyer as that surpasses the threshold of buying the car without the intent to resale.

    EVs need to stand on their own, not depend on government handouts to help. Limited range, time to charge, battery life and cost must be better addressed by the EV makers to gain mass adoption.

      How about the insane levels of oil subsidies each year? Without subsidizing the ev transition, there’s a case to also be made that we’re putting the EVs themselves at a disadvantage

      @@motoman771 Depends on the car. Some EVs cannot meet EPA rating in the real world, while some can exceed it. Just like gas cars: some cars can meet or exceed their EPA MPG in the real world, some cannot. Second the oil subsidies comment: without the massive actual and effective government subsidies to the oil industry, gas prices would be much higher. The government helps soccer moms drive Ram mega cabs to drop off their one kid at preschool and pick up two bags of groceries from the market...why can't they help people drive vehicles that don't contribute to billions in pulmonary and cardiovascular-related health costs each year?
