We recently bought a house. Since we closed in 2010, we figured that we'd get the Federal Tax Credit on our 2010 tax returns, i.e. next year. It never occurred to us that it might be otherwise. However, today I was talking to a friend who closed on their house the month after we did, and they were able to claim it on their 2009 returns. Could we also have claimed ours this year? (theirs was a first-time home purchase, ours was not). Can we claim it next year? Can we file an amended return or something? Or did we somehow miss out on our credit? |
