. Currently my 11/26/21 order is slated for Nov 20 - Jan 15 delivery but I wouldn't be surprised to see it get bumped up.Looks like the "date of agreement" will be the delivery date. The first page shows your original order date as the "date accepted by customer" and the signature page shows Tesla's signature dated the day the VIN was assigned. Not familiar with the CVRP but would think the "date of agreement"/delivery date would control.MYLR should qualify for at least half of the credit ($3750). I was also thinking about temporarily adding the 7-seater option if my EDD closes in too quickly
My question is... does anyone know what date is reflected on the final Motor Vehicle Purchase Agreement? The original reservation date, or the date of latest configuration change? I ask due to California's CVRP program.
The original order date is on the first page of MVPA with the updated vehicle config, and VIN. The 2nd page, with total cost, is dated with the delivery day.MYLR should qualify for at least half of the credit ($3750).

7 seats may work somewhat. A more predictable way would be to remove all options from the car (assuming you have options on your car). Non optioned orders have a 3-4 month later EDD over options with even a single option (paint, 20", white seats, 7 seats, tow, fsd, eap). Then when Jan arrives you can add back your options you had previously and your EDD "should" correct. If you currently don't have options on your order adding 7 seats would probably work in reverse and get you the car sooner, not later.MYLR should qualify for at least half of the credit ($3750).

I think that is why the point of sale is starting 2024 b/c they need time to figure it out and how it will work..
Guessing the same way they did the stimulus checks, and the early payments on child tax credit, which had similar income limits... use the last year's taxes on file and base your income on that.
I would just buy the car when it comes in if it's the car you want, This EV thing is such a mess right now- it might take till 2024 to get it sorted out. I'm angry that in all likelihood, this will delay the transition to BEVs as the rules are so convoluted, even Elon Musk probably isn't smart enough to figure them out.
Do you have any other upgrades on your order? If your only upgrade is 7 seats then removing 7 seats and making your order a no option order should delay your EDD 3-4 months. But if you have other upgrades like paint colors, white seats, tow, 20", FSD, or EAP then removing 7 seats may actually speed things up as 7 seats tend to be delivered slower than 5 seaters.
i only have 7 seat upgrade at this point.....this is my 2nd model Y, so i am not in hurry to get it anyway.....
I have a trade that expired and Tesla told me that they changed the system. It no longer delays your account. I guess more people were doing that and they stopped it, earlier this year. Call up tells yourself and they will tell you too! .If your price is $6k cheaper why not pick it up now? I would not delay hoping the government sorts out this bad bill. What if they make some sort of addendum to it where it would remove Tesla somehow and then where would you be? I would not cross my fingers hoping they will do the right thing..
thank you. i will consider taking the Y this year if have to. i kind of doubt it that Model Y is excluded from the tax rebate....after all...Y is the best seller of the all EV.
That implies that since the suggested MSRP before options is below 80 that even if you add FSD & 7 seater which would push it above 80 you'd qualify? So confusing.The current federal tax credit, for which Tesla no longer qualifies, has no limit on the price. The current proposed legislation has many limitations, including price of vehicle, AGI of tax payer, where the vehicle is manufactured, where the battery materials are sourced. The vehicle price is the manufacturer retail price.
A link to a pdf of the proposed legislation is in this article:

Here is the part about the vehicle price:

My order is already as basic as it gets - default/free everything MSM color Model Y LR
The new rules are super confusing with different interpretations everywhere, so I won't even dive into my potentially inaccurate take. 
I’m not sure what you are reading that confuses base price with MSRP. MSRP includes options that have been included on that specific car by the manufacturer. Go to any new car lot and different versions of the same model have different MSRP listed on the window sticker because they have different options.
This certainly could have no relevance to how the US rebates work but in Canada we have both Federal and Provincial rebates and they have a set maximum vehicle price to qualify. (FWIW, No Teslas qualify). My in-laws just purchased a Kia EV6, Kia (and Hyundai) has deliberately priced their cars to have the highest trim model fit just under the price cap. However, you can then still add option packages on top of that and still get the rebate. So their final MSRP goes up but they still qualify due to the base MSRP of that trim level.
