Obligation to repay home investment tax relief if construction fails and a new property is purchased

A taxpayer claimed a tax deduction for home investment after contributing funds to a housing cooperative; however, the property was never built, and the recovered funds were used to purchase a different home. The Directorate General for Taxes (DGT) has ruled that the taxpayer must repay the previously claimed deductions and is ineligible to apply a new deduction for the subsequent purchase.

How it affects those involved

This ruling clarifies that the failure to complete a construction project under a cooperative scheme triggers the obligation to repay tax relief, and that funds recovered from such failures cannot be repurposed to claim new investment deductions for different properties.
