Finally! For reference my 15400 form was generated VIA Tesla's online tool on 1/23.

I think it's just the SSN/VIN. The guidelines that required the dealer to submit the SSN/VIN wasn't finalized until April of 2023. Since CMPT took delivery in 2022 Tesla has no reason to report their SSN/VIN to the IRS. Many of us who took delivery in early 2023 while guidelines were still in...

True...but I feel like they could have done a much better job once those guidelines were released back in April. They are a technology focused company and have several ways to communicate with us whether it be through phone, email, car notifications, or in app notifications. They never reached...

I got off the phone with Tesla (4th time calling them) and they basically told me if I have the 15400 form in my documents then all the paperwork is done on their end. They insist that the problem lies with the IRS and that I need to call them to ensure there are no typos regarding the VIN on...

Rejected again btw.

Mine showed up almost immediately after I submitted the online request. I filed again earlier last week and I'm still getting the same rejection notice where the IRS is rejecting my VIN. Just submitted again a few minutes ago, if it won't allow me to file online by March then I guess I'm going...

Rejected again. Same reason. Donnie, To finish your tax return, please correct the error(s) described below or follow the instructions provided. Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) The IRS is rejecting your return because the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) on one of your vehicles used...

I hope so. I'm going to resubmit again tomorrow. Hopefully it goes through.

I believe the IRS has a system that automatically checks to see if there's a matching VIN/SSN in their database. If it finds none then it auto-rejects. I typically eFile every year when I get my W2. The reason I was given for the rejection: 2023...

My form was generated on 1/23 but the IRS doesn't have mine yet 😞. I filed on the 26th and it was rejected by the IRS.

Oh interesting! Is that the second time they've extended it? I thought it was only extended until the end of this month initially.

Yep, I efiled through FreeTaxUSA. Doesn't appear there's any way to include any attachments when you submit to the IRS through them. Worst case scenario if Tesla is unable to give me any answers then I could mail my return in. I do have the 15400 signed and dated for 1/23. Hoping it doesn't go...

Hey all! I didn't know about the 15400 at first (I took delivery January 2023). Submitted my tax return with the 8936 on Jan 21st and received a rejection from the IRS because my "VIN didn't match their records" on the 23rd. I found out about needing the 15400 and how to generate it through...

I contacted Tesla and the person on the phone said that they'd have to email another department because from their knowledge all the VINs should already be submitted. They said they understand that the deadline to report all VINs is at the end of this month so they will get me a response in 24...

Welp, just got the email. Tax return was rejected again. Not sure what to do at the moment. The deadline for Tesla to report my vehicle is in a few days. I have the IRA document dated 1/23 but at this point I don't even know when I'd be able to submit my tax return since it keeps getting rejected.
