Ameridream

What is the name of your state? Ohio

I sold my house thru FHA and the Ameridream program. The Ameridream program helps first time home buyers. I contributed $4550.00 in the sale of my house to this program with the understanding that I would be able to claim this contribution on my federal taxes. I was told verbally and in writing from the real estate agent that I would receive a 1099 form from Ameridream to do this. After calling Ameridream I found out that this was not a contribution and I could not claim as such. I could claim this on the sale of my house, but I am exempt as I am over 55.

After contacting the real estate company, they turned it over to the agent that gave me this information. She has since left that agency and is now with another agency. She has tried to help, but has been unsuccessful. I feel that the real estate agency has misrepresented this information. Is there a responsible party here?

If I am unable to claim this I will have to pay the government.

Do I have any recourse with the real estate company?

Thankyou
