That's great! How easy was it to deal with the IRS? We're still waiting to learn our status. Was the IRS timely for you?
Our only complaint is that there is some documentation that we have to send that we have to have encrypted because the IRS doesn't have a secure email account. Yes, you read that right.

May I please ask how long does it takes for your dealership to get approved on the advance payment system? I‘ve been waiting for a month now and got absolutely no communication or reply from either the secure messaging nor emails. Thanks

I apologize, I am at a different dealership now and I didn't handle all of the set up on this.

After learning that the federal government still processes all retirements using paper, by hand, with 700+ mine workers filing manila envelopes and cardboard boxes in a limestone mine hundreds of feet underground…I’m honestly just impressed the IRS even has an email account.

My sister lives in NC and bought an EV. She said between the taxes and new additional fees, it's upwards of $500 a year.

In North Carolina, EV owners must pay a standard state vehicle registration fee (around $46.25), a local county tax, and a Highway Use Tax instead of a traditional sales tax. Additionally, EV owners pay an annual surcharge of $214.50 (or $107.25 for plug-in hybrids) to offset lost gas tax revenues.


Quite shitty for States to charge extra $$ to "offset the lost tax revenue."
 

✨ AI Highlights

Dealers discuss their experiences with the IRS's used EV tax credit program, with one dealer reporting easy enrollment and quick reimbursement despite frustrating documentation requirements (encrypted emails to an agency lacking secure email). A second dealer expresses frustration after waiting a month with no approval or communication from the IRS, highlighting the program's inconsistent responsiveness and administrative challenges.
