At the current burn rate, it looks like the CVRP rebate (California) of $2500 for BEV ($2,210,774 as of now) will be exhausted in the next 7 days or so. New funding, if any, will only come in the next fiscal year.
This is correct. Once you submit a claim, the money is "reserved" pending documentation. The $2.1m is for new claims.smkettner said:Is that available for new claims? My money should be already reserved and paid in 90 days, yes?
If you applied on or after March 28, 2014, you will receive your rebate check in September 2014.
There was about $1.5m left when the plug was pulled this afternoon. Not sure the reason why. Maybe they wanted to avoid problems if they had mis-tracked the funds.drees said:Wow, I just looked at the available funds for this last night and there was still close to $2M left or enough for at least 500 more cars.
Did someone go and buy a whole bunch of plug-ins today?
This URL used to show the amount of available funds:

The Google cache from Mar 27, 2014 17:56:59 GMT showed $1,994,774 - that's enough for almost 800 EVs - probably quite a few more since many cars are PHEVs.

Major bummer for anyone who bought today or the last day or two and though they'd have the weekend to apply/reserve their rebate.
If that were the case, why postpone all payments until September? Can't take that long to figure out, they must be making changes to the program.greenleaf said:There was about $1.5m left when the plug was pulled this afternoon. Not sure the reason why.
