Can you keep the home buyer tax credit after selling your home and moving to a new home before the 3rd year?
Meaning: buying your first Home this year and qualifying for the tax credit. Then, 1 or 2 years later, sell the home, and move to another home. Or are you stuck in the same home for 3 years to avoid repaying the credit?

No. You must use the home as your primary residence for the full 3 years or else pay back the tax credit.
