Hello,

I’m seeking information about the Clean Vehicle Rebate Project (CVRP) timelines in California.

For my 2023 Prius Prime SE application:

​

  • July 25: Submitted application
  • July 26: Received confirmation email for submitted documents
  • Oct 17: Received application approval email
  • Nov 3: Notified of a check being sent

It’s now Nov 17, and I haven’t received the check. Is this delay typical? The Nov 3 email mentioned contacting them if the check doesn’t arrive within 30 days.

I know it hasn’t been that long, but why does it even take longer than a couple of days for the check to arrive?

Could someone cash the check if it’s sent to the wrong address, potentially leading to loss of funds?

Thank you so much for reading and potentially answering!

    You submitted yours a few days before I did, even got check sent email same date on Nov. 3. I received check about a week later. Check fraud is alot harder from regular banks. It’s the check cashing places that’s slightly easier, but with a $2k check it’ll still require them to truly verify that it’s you.

    And yes, I wish they had a direct deposit or even CA state tax return type rebate rather than a check.

      Thank you for answering! I’m gonna wait til I hit the 30 day mark, and if the check is still not here, I will ask them to reissue one. Just hoping they are able to do so (assuming they would know if said check has been deposited yet). Also I really hope ppl need their ID to deposit the check lol
