Home Tax Credit 2009 Extension

Home Tax Credit 2009 Extension

Question: First time home buyer trying to get tax credit?

I am a first time home buyer who closed in July 2009. I am filing single and on track to make roughly $90,000 this year. I know last week Obama signed the extension of this program which also raised the income limit for single filers to $125,000 from the previous $75,000. My question is will this apply to me since I closed before this new bill went into affect. I’ve gotten mixed answers and want to know my options.




Answer: Nope, the new extension ONLY applies to closed home sales AFTER 11/30/09. Extensions EXTEND things FORWARD, not backwards.
