homebuyer tax credits: Homebuyer Tax Credit Redefined - 05/29/09 09:53 PM
The FHA appeard to be allowing homebuyers to use income tax credits for their entire 3.5% down payment but concerns this too closely resembled seller paid down payment assistance cause them to re-define this program. 
Borrowers applying for an FHA loan will still be required to come up with a minimum 3.5 percent down payment, but will be able to use the tax credit for additional down payment or for other closing costs.
