Buying an apartment, you intend to usetax deduction? Of course, because you've heard so much about it, but only while you know exactly how to act properly.

Firstly, you should know that if the employer, the local administration or another person has allocated funds to purchase an apartment, and you have used the funds of the parent capital, then you are not entitled to deduction. You can apply the tax deduction when buying an apartment or a private house only once. This applies to all those who have already received a property deduction later in 2001. Those taking advantage of the right to deduct until 2001 when buying an apartment or building a house can get it again.
The calculation of the tax deduction is based oncost of housing or the cost of its construction, but can not exceed 2 million rubles. under the new legislation (if the right to receive a deduction has arisen since 2008). If the deduction began to receive before 2008, then the maximum amount of it can not be more than 1 million rubles. The rate on it is 13%. That is, if you buy an apartment for 5 million rubles, then you will return 13% from only 2 million, and this will be 260 thousand rubles.

Retired (non-working); individuals - non-residents of the Russian Federation, individual entrepreneurs who enjoy a simplified taxation system or a tax on imputed income, can not do this. If you won the lottery, buy from relatives or received a decent amount for dividends and decided to buy an apartment, according to the law, you are not entitled to tax credits when buying an apartment.
Interestingly, when will you finally be able toget this tax deduction? From the moment you receive a document showing your right to an apartment or a house. If an apartment is bought in a newly built house - as soon as you receive the act of transfer of housing.
