This story has been updated to clarify that unclaimed funds from 2024 do not roll over but remain available due to the program’s late rollout. The 2024 tax credit awards totaled about $718,000, not $500,000 as initially estimated. We also clarified that retroactive eligibility for 2024 purchases is part of the program’s design, not a corrective measure; that applicants can request a letter of eligibility before making purchases, though it does not guarantee a tax credit; and that outreach teams, not the state, are working to identify lending partners. We removed a quote describing the application process as “not competitive” to avoid confusion, as the process is non-competitive by design.
