This is absolutely ridiculous. It’s embarrassing that our government let this happen; that they are that incompetent. Do you know what is going to happen to the people who wrongfully received tax credits? Will they all be forced to return them? What about in the case where it was the govt.’s mistake and not the homebuyer?
This is crazy! absolutely embarrassing for our government…
