Dear All,
Just to make my question clearer, here is my situation:
Step by Step:
0. Never own any property before 1 July 2000
1. Bought IP1 in Sept 2000
2. Bought Ip2 in April 2001
3. Bought PPOR in June 2001 (can I claim FHOG? at that time I did not put in a claim because I think I am not eligible.
From the assessment questions above I answer yes to all the question except question 3 (NO). This question state that “never owned and occupied”. I did owned 2 IPs but I never occupied it. Does it mean I am still eligible. is this a yes or no?
From 1 july 2000 to the day I bought my first PPOR (June 2001) I owned 2 investment properties therefore I may not be eligible for the grant.
Am I right?
I am confused. Can you help?
Warm Regards
