New Home Buyers must complete their firs-time home purchases before Dec. 1 to qualify for the special first-time homebuyer credit.
The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act extended the tax credit, which has provided a tax benefit to more than 1.4 million taxpayers so far. The credit of up to $8,000 is generally available to homebuyers with qualifying income levels who have never owned a home or have not owned one in the past three years.

About Me
- YouTube Channel
- I am a telecommunications engineer by trade, graduated DeVry - Chicago Campus, and worked WNUS-Chicago, KPIX San Francisco, Hewlett Packard and United Airlines - SFO. Born and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area. Lived in Europe, Africa for a short time, Mexico and South America. Early Childhood Education was my second career and my most rewarding. From vocational instructor at the college level to my own private preschool and kindergarten, this is the career that touched my heart. And now, even though I am retired and traveling the world, I still find the need to provide value for young children around the globe. I am the author of Travel the World on Social Security and several short fictional reads in the Kindle Store. My favorite Kindle eBooks are the series of educational books for kids ages 3 to 9 years of age. I have included each of the topics necessary for a young child to do well in Kindergarten. My eBooks are best viewed on a large-screen TV. The pages come to life, and children enjoy the enormous size of viewing their eBook on the big screen.
