1st time homebuyer tax credit

Does anyone have any information or know where to find info about this.


We bought a house last year 08 and received the 1st time homebuyer credit this year which is basically a no interest loan from the govt.

I heard though under the new plans it does not need to be repaid. Anyone know if it is true.

I seen a another article which says only the homebuyers in 2009 will receive the non-refundable one and anyone before will still have to repay.

Thats alittle unfair

Thanks

Definitely unfair!

I did read that those that bought in 2009 get a higher credit like $15000.

Re: 1st time homebuyer tax credit

i was mad at first that the 2009 homeowners don't have to pay it back, but then you have to be thankful that 2008 homeowners get it at all. i feel bad for the earlier homeowners.
