Question

California EV Tax Credit for 2020

I bought a Tesla Model Y in June 2020. I remember Tesla's website showing a California tax credit. How can I claim that credit in TurboTax 2020? It's currently not showing anything for EV Tax credit in California state.

    There's not actually a credit on your California return for this. 

    There are, however, rebates, grants and "rewards" available.

    You may be referring to Tesla's Electric Vehicle & Solar Incentives page, but there's no mention there of a California tax credit.

    Please see the California Clean Vehicle Rebate Project's State and Federal Electric Vehicle Incentives page for more information.
