I have a question from a friend who bought a Bolt EUV last year. IRS regs say that in order for the buyer to receive the tax credit, the dealer must report the sale to the IRS:
Sellers of eligible electric vehicles can help their customers take advantage of clean vehicle credits by registering with the IRS and meeting reporting requirements.

His Chevrolet dealer has not filed a report of the sale and claims he is under no obligation to do so and that it is the buyer's responsibility.
Questions to Lucid owners who received a tax credit for their Lucid: do you know if Lucid reported the sale to the IRS, and did Lucid ask you for your tax ID (or SSN) at time of purchase in order to file such a report? (I received the tax credit for my Lucid purchase but cannot remember if I had to provide my tax identification to Lucid.)
