Yes, you get back 7500 dollar tax credit- so if you owed 2k, you would get a check for 5500. then you pay back 500a year for 15 years, unless you sell the house sooner. Then a lump sum is due for the remainder of the $

DH and I are planning to file for this.
It's an interest free loan. The $7500 will come in the check with your tax return. Then $500 will be deducted from your return every year for 15 yrs.
We are going to use it pay off our debt!

Somehow I am still a bit confused on this! Is it 7500 or no more than 7500? Those who spent say 450k would get back 4500 right?

It's up to 10% of the purchase price of your home. The highest you can get is 7500. If your home was 450K you would get 7500. You don't start paying it back until 2010.
