If the taxpayer's return has been rejected with reject code "SA-F8936-047" or "SA-F8936-048," this means that the car dealership has not submitted the required information to the IRS Energy Credits Online (ECO). The taxpayer must contact the dealership or seller to ensure the vehicle information has been submitted to the ECO.

The codes mean: 

  • "SA-F8936-047" - Schedule A (Form 8936) credit amount does not match the type of credit reported in e-File database.

  • "SA-F8936-048" - The e-file database indicates this vehicle was not purchased during the tax period of the return.

The taxpayer can either:

  • File the return without Form 8936 now, and then amend the return once the car dealership or seller has submitted the information to the IRS.

  • Wait to file their tax return until the car dealership or seller has submitted the vehicle information to the IRS.
