My boyfriend has owned his house for 6 years. We just had it refinanced to receive a better interest rate to get it paid off faster. When we refinanced the house we added my name, so I am now the co-owner. I have never purchased a house before. So my question is would I qualify for the $8,000 tax credit for being a first time home buyer?
Good question - my first impression would be no, but I'm not 100% clear on the terms of the 8K tax credit so don't take that as gospel.
