Longtime homeowner's / homebuyers credit

Mar 24, 2010 1 Replies

Client qualifies for the $6500 Longtime homeowner/homebuyer's credit.



He purchases (closes) on the house in June 2010. Can he use his 2010 Modified Adjusted Income to determine credit eligability?



He is in the phaseout MAGI in 2009 ($225K - $245K) due do 2009 severance pay. His MAGI will be considerably less in 2010.



Thank You, Marie


The income limitations are applicable to the taxable year of the home purchase. Use 2010.
