My partner and I are in the process of buying a PHEV that qualifies for the full non-refundable federal tax credit. We will both owe taxes in excess of the current $7,500 cap (will see if that increases with the new budget bill).

Is there guidance on splitting the credit across owners? Does it matter what order our names are on the title?
