It took a few months but the IRS released Form 5405. This is the form to file for the home buyer tax credit for homes purchased after the original tax credit expired on November 30th.
For the new home buyer tax credit you need to have a contract by April 30th and close by July 1st.
Here's form 5404 (pdf) from the IRS website. Here is a post on the Home Buyer Tax Credits for Ann Arbor Buyers. Kathy Toth and Team Ann ARbor Market Center Keller Williams 734-669-0337

Gita, Andrew, Roy and Karen, You are right, and having the link in email signature for buyer responses is not a bid idea....
