Associated Press - June 22, 2009 6:05 AM ET

PIERRE, S.D. (AP) - A new program will help first-time home buyers in South Dakota come up with a down payment and closing costs.

The South Dakota Housing Development Authority says its Advance Tax Credit Loan Program allows borrowers to use part of their federal First-Time Home Buyer Tax Credit for the costs.

Borrowers are able to access 6% of the home purchase price, up to $6,000.

The agency says the program is available to people who close and occupy their home by Dec. 1.
