I have a tax question. I have my taxes filled out and I owe $120, great I could send it in and be done with it BUT I am in closing on a house which I can claim on my 2009 taxes for the $8000 credit. Long story shot I wont completely closed until the end of April because I am in a city stabilization program which is paying my down payment because I am getting a foreclosed property.
So I am going to file an extension so I can get the home buyer tax credit now. But when reading the paperwork for filing for an extension it says if you owe money you must pay it. Do I owe money or dont I? I currently do but I wont when all is said and done. I could pay it now but I would rather not loan the government $120 for 2-3 months just just get it right back, I will make a few cents off it in my savings account haha!
