I'm finishing up my taxes and I just remembered that I heard someplace that New Jersey has some sort of tax credit for hybrids purchased in 2006. Does anyone know whether this is true and if so, how to apply for it? Incidentally I just downloaded Turbo Taxes' hybrid forms last night. I will be getting $3150 back from the feds!
<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE(Seagull @ Mar 21 2007, 09:43 AM) [snapback]409503[/snapback]</div> Nope. From http://www.state.nj.us/treasury/taxation/emailfaqs.htm: There were a few bills introduced in Trenton last year to give consumers incentives to buy hybrids (like waiving sales tax on them), but they all died in committee.
Thanks. I just found the answer in the NJ Treasury Dept FAQ.... "Can I claim a deduction for my hybrid motor vehicle on my New Jersey income tax return? There is no provision for a clean fuel vehicle deduction on the New Jersey income tax return similar to the adjustment allowed for Federal purposes. " It looked like S749 was what I was looking for but I guess it died somewhere which doens't surprise me in this state.
Does anyone have an update for NJ tax credit or rebate? I've search but couldn't find much it seems like the bill stalled sometime during the summer.
