This is probably very true. However, I have to admit that my son plans to put in for his tax break on a house he purchased in October. He won't get anywhere near the $8000 maximum, though.

First of all, did you read your link? It doesn't even mention illegal immigrants in regards to first-time home buyers. And secondly, if that's what you're trying to insinuate, did you notice that the article itself injects the word "taxpayer" more than once? That means, someone who pays their taxes. So tell me, if they're paying their taxes, what's the problem here?

The problem would be that its a program to help legal AMERICAN citizens not illegals. In short illegals have no right to take advantage of said programs.

. . . and if you had gotten the WHOLE story you would have found out Aunt IRS will deal with it in her usual way. Seems there was a problem with some government silyvilian who didn't do such a hot job of writing instructions. Of course, since the OP has others doing his taxes he has no idea how the IRS handles them kinda things.

How is figuring taxes "incorrectly" an issue with the Obama administration? Somebody want to say nobody has ever incorrectly filled out a tax return or form? Gimme a break! That's the kinda ignorance one would display who has others do their taxes. Absolutely clueless of what's going on outside that 3' circle around them.

Since when has $500 million become "billions"?

You have not read the article correctly. The "billions" has nothing to do with the first time home buyer program but is more to do with IRS incompetence when trying to get illegal immigrants to pay taxes. Then again, the article talks about fraud but not about the extra taxes the IRS got from these immigrants

2/10 for comprehension
