First Time Home Buyer Credit Ontario

Question: Does Canada have “First-Time Home Buyer Tax Credit” legislation?

Friend of my told me that I could get up to $8000 tax credit since I just purchased a house. I am first-time house buyer, and married couple income is lower than $160,000. So I am wondering, can I apply for this tax credit, I am living in Ontario, Canada. If answer of my first question is “Yes”, then, my second question is, should I fill in the tax return form next year for the home purchase happened this year, or should I fill in the form this year, 2009? Thanks lot for any help!

Answer: Information about the 2009 HBTC is here:

It will be available as a line item on the 2009 tax return, for purchases of homes closed after January 27, 2009.
