First-time homebuyer tax credit, income limits

Profile picture for hbaron01
Is there any regional variation in the income limits to be eligible for the federal $8,000 tax credit? The income limits are low for San Francisco, where salaries tend to reflect the high cost of living.

Unfortunately, no. The govt doesn't discriminate on the basis of the higher cost of living or higher salaries by area. The income limits are the same no matter where you live.

75k is the cutoff to receive the full $8000. If you make between 75k-90k, the credit is reduced. Anything over that does not get the credit. However, you can get the state credit for 10k if you buy new construction.
