I am from Ohio, so we dont have any state electric bike credit. However, the federal government passed a law allowing for a 30% tax credit on electric bikes under $4000. When filing my taxes I did not see how to get this credit.

Thanks

The credit for qualified 2-wheeled plug-in electric vehicles expired in 2022. If you bought a 2-wheeled vehicle in 2021, but placed it in service during 2022, you may still be able to claim the credit for 2022. If you bought it after 2021, you can't claim the credit
