Since then we thought all good and done, but received email from developers solicitor that funds haven't reached their account, very strange. Has anyone encountered this issue or know more details please ? We are in closing phase and don't want any unexpected surprises, thanks

Maybe it's not uncommon. I wonder how difficult is it as a builder to become a qualified builder with Revenue for the Help to Buy scheme?

Upon talking to the agent I was told that couples who have bought into the development previously in the last few months have used the Help to Buy scheme. But... upon checking the list of qualifying contracters on the Revenue website HERE (PDF), I can't find the developer on the list.

However I've been assured that it will be honored when the time comes to claim it given that they have advertised the development being eligible. Other people who have bought into the development have asked the same question.

I done mine about 2 years ago so can't remember how long it takes from start to finish, i.e. submitting the Form 12s etc. Anyone done it recently know how long the process is these days?

My question is, as I understand it, this refund will now go directly to the developer? We are purchasing a new build off the plans.
