New tax credit

My husband and I are getting ready to buy a house. Before we were married, he purchased a home 2 years ago as a principal residence. It is now a rental and we are living in an apt until we purchase. This will be my first purchase. Due to a change in jobs, he is now a 1099 employee. The mortgage will be in my name only and he will only be on title. By purchasing in my name only, am I eligible for the tax credit?

No, I don't think you will be eligible.
No matter what, they test the eligibility of both spouses and both have to pass the eligibility.

No. The purchase date determines whether a taxpayer is a first-time homebuyer. Since the husband had ownership interest in a principal residence with the prior three years, neither taxpayer may take the first-time homebuyer credit. (verbatim from IRS website, see link)

No and it doesn't matter how you file either. Make up the incentive loss with a low purchase price and a great mortgage. These 2 last longer than a one time tax credit. Welcome to Charlotte!!!
