If you are talking about the $8000, Mike gave you a good website. However, if you are talking about local grant programs (not everywhere has them), you will need to contact a loan officer or Realtor who is familiar with them and is willing to work with buyers who use them.

The program is administered by the IRS and once you have purchased a home you would either file the appropriate paperwork with the IRS (form 5405 1040x to amend your 2008 taxes or file form 5405 along with your 2009 taxes next year) to get the money. Any qualified tax preparer would be able to help you file the necessary paperwork.

To learn more about the program contact a Realtor, mortgage professional or tax professional. The program is called the First Time Homebuyers Credit. If they don't know what you are talking about, find someone else.

Here's a link that explains in easy terms to see if you qualify for the credit.
