In Budget 2022, the Federal government proposed the introduction of the Tax-Free First Home Savings Account (FHSA). This account will allow first time home buyers to save money for the purchase of their new home. The Bill received a Royal Ascend in December of 2022. The enacted rules permit individuals to use the FHSA and the Home Buyers’ Plan together in respect of the same qualifying home purchase.
