I just realized yesterday that due to being unemployed most of last year, I should be able to qualify for an EV credit due to being in a lower tax bracket for 2022. Wonder if I should take advantage.

Definitely need to check, I figured it was based on W-2's and those are just coming in for 2022.

If not then I guess an EV is out.

Ah:

You can use your modified AGI from the year you take delivery of the vehicle or the year before, whichever is less. If your modified AGI is below the threshold in 1 of the two years, you can claim the credit.
