FAFSA and $8000 first-time home buyer tax credit

<p>a credit is a reduction of taxes owed. I do not know how this tax credit will be handled if the person doesn’t owe that much in federal taxes. If it is refundable or not??? I understand your question, don’t know the exact answer</p>

look at #11. it doesn’t say if any refundable part of the credit is taxable as income (that would suck)</p>
