Question: Homeowner Tax Credit Extended, plus $6500?

I have a question about what I just read on yahoo.

“Under the new language in the Senate, homeowners who have lived in their home for five of the past eight years would be eligible to receive a $6,500 tax credit, while first-time buyers would still be eligible for an $8,000 credit.”

What does the part about the $6,500 mean?

Answer: It means nothing until the House of Representatives passes the exact same language. If the House of Representatives passes different language, then the conference committee decides. If the House of Representatives passes nothing, then it means nothing.

If the House of Representatives does pass the same language, then anyone who owned a house from 2001-2006, 2002-2007, 2003-2008, or 2004-2009 might qualify for a $6500 tax refund or a $6500 reduction in their tax bill, but only if they fill out some paperwork, and only if either Obama signs the law or the House of Representatives and the Senate both vote by a 2/3rds majority to override his veto.

Hombuyer Tax Credit Has Been Extended

Question: If you bought a house in August 08 can you still qualify for the tax refund?.?

THIS IS THE PART THAT HAS ME CONFUSED:

Different income eligibility limits apply depending on when you bought the house. If you purchased it before November 7, 2009, you are eligible for the full first-time home buyer’s tax credit if you are single and your income didn’t top $75,000 or if you are married and your joint income didn’t exceed $150,000. The credit phases out for individuals with incomes up to $95,000 and married couples with joint incomes up to $170,000, disappearing above those income levels.
We did not own a house for 4 years before this purchase, so I know we qualify as a first time home buyer. It states that you must not have owned for at least 3 years before.
We are married, and live on one income of $60 a year.

Answer: You are eligible for $7500 refundable interest free loan payable in 15 years.

Question: I am looking at buying a house (I am a first time home buyer credit)?

Hello I am looking at buying a house. I am a first time home buyer and so I am thinking I will get the tax credit, but I am not sure because I will need a co-signer (my mother who is not a first time home buyer) will this effect my eligibility for the tax credit?

(not that this matters for the question, but I am sure people will think I am getting over my head if I need a co-signer)
1) I will not qualify for a loan on my own
2) I am not buying a house I cant afford I will have roomates (and beable to pay on my own if they screw me) Also I will be putting down over 10%

Answer: As long as the deed/title of the house is in your name, you should qualify for the first time home Buyers Tax Credit. Whose name the mortgage is in is not as important…
