do I need a slip of paper saying hybrid tax credit on it or will the purchase papers work???
Go to the following site. http://www.irs.gov/newsroom/article/…165649,00.html Here is what I know (which doesn’t answer your question exactly): On a 2006 400h bought before September, 2006, I was eligible for a $2,200 federal tax credit (yes credit not deduction!). I also got a $3,443 tax credit (yes a credit again!) from Colorado on my state taxes. So don’t forget to look at state tax advantages. I asked my dealer at the time I bought my 400h if they had a form that I had to send in with my taxes. They said no. I did my taxes with TaxCut software, and the only thing the software asked for was the Purchase Agreement Deal Number. On my State return, there was a vague reference to submitting backup for the credit, so I sent a copy of my Purcahse Agreement with my return. If you need a certificate for your tax guy, go to the Toyota web site and find a page like the following link at Lexus, and you can print one from the IRS for your type of vehcile: http://www.lexus.com/hybriddrive/tax.
