At HomeBuyerTaxCredit.com, we've been writing for months about the "Marriage Penalty" in the Home Buyer Tax Credit -- the way that the tax credit treats married couples differently from unmarried couples. In this video, Joseph Rand of HomeBuyerTaxCredit.com explains what the marriage penalty is, where it came from, and what you can do if you want to see it eliminated.
Great video but you forgot a penalty. This is what happened to us. I have ownedand lived in my house for 8 consecutive years. Then 2 years ago I married a young lady. We refinanced and she was put on the title. Now our marriage disqualifies us.
