New for 2008 tax filings in 2009:
2008 tax law changes

If you did not receive the full amount of the stimulus payment because your child was born in 2008, or your income was higher, you may receive it as part of your refund on your 2008 return. - First-time homebuyer's credit
For primary homes purchased between April 9, 2008, and June 30, 2009 with the passage of the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008, some first-time homebuyers can claim a credit of 10 percent of the home's purchase price, up to a maximum of $7,500. It needs to be paid back over 15 years, without interest though. - Standard property tax deduction
If you don't itemize your deductions, but do pay property tax, you can add up to $500 (1,000 for joint filers) to your standard deduction - Surviving spouse home sale exclusion
- Housing tax-break holdovers - foreclosure debt relief and deductible private mortgage insurance payments
