Can anyone give me a straight answer - I've plowed through all the discussions and am no closer to understanding - there is so much info, and a bunch contradictory, including some mixing it up with EVSE credit - I've read the IRS info and can't figure that out either.
The understanding I've come to is the $7500 Fed. Tax Credit is applied to both the regular tax rate, and the AMT, so whether you pay the AMT or not it doesn't matter, your tax bill will be reduced by $7500.
Is there some sort of tax alchemy were you won't get the full $7500 if you must pay the AMT?
I understand if you don't owe more than $7500 you won't get the full rebate, I'm on the other end.
My accountant was in an accident and hasn't been able to get back to me for over a week. My car is SITTING at the dealership and the $5000 CA rebate is evaporating - I should have got it today, I must get it tomorrow or risk the $5000. I want to purchase, not lease.
I don't want MHOs, certainly not what the guy at the finance dept. at the dealership trying to sell a lease had to say, has anyone talked to a tax professional, or clearly understands the tax code and knows the answer?
PLEASE HELP!!!
