Hi,
I am not H1B visa and my wife is on H4 visa. I have SSN and my wife has ITIN. We are planning to buy a house and I want to know if we are eligible to receive $7500 tax credit when I file the tax return for 2008.

Thank you

Hi,
There is a typo in the above question. I wanted to say, "I am on H1B visa" but my mistake I wrote "I am not H1B visa". Sorry for that.

Non-residents are not eligible.
Resident aliens are eligible even if they have ITIN. So on resident tax return, you will get first time homeowner credit, which is in fact no interest loan.
