Hi There,

 

I would like to leverage First Time Home buyer Subtraction for the Tax year 2021, but can I open the account now and contribute to it in 2022 ? similar to HSA or IRA accounts ? or this is not a possibility ?

State : Oregon

    No, it is very clear that the subtraction is for deposits and earnings made during the tax year. 

     

    Here an excerpt from Publication OR-17:

    "Oregon allows a subtraction for amounts you deposited during the tax year into a designated FTHBSA, along with any earnings on your deposits."

     

    And later in the same section:

    "Only those amounts that were deposited or earned during the tax year may be subtracted from that year’s Oregon taxable income."

    Only those amounts that were deposited or earned during the tax year may be subtracted from that year’s Oregon taxable income.

    Thank you Mike for the response.. "The amount deposited or earned during the year can be considered .. "

    Can it be interpreted as that we can still deposit now and show proof that it was earned during 2021 ?
