What is Form 3800?

It combines credits from multiple source forms — including Form 7207 (Advanced Manufacturing), Form 8835 (Renewable Electricity), Form 8911 (Alternative Fuel Vehicle Refueling, business portion), and Form 8936 (Clean Vehicle, business/commercial portion) — into a single total that flows to Schedule 3 Line 6d.
