Key legal question
Whether the complaint raised a question of fundamental significance under § 115 Abs. 2 Nr. 1 FGO in a home-purchase allowance case
Extracted holding
No. The matter concerned expired home-purchase allowance law; only exceptionally can such cases still present a fundamental, clarifiable legal question, which was neither substantiated nor apparent here.
Extracted reasoning
The home-purchase allowance is obsolete law under § 19 Abs. 9 EigZulG. The court reiterated that only exceptional cases still justify fundamental significance. The appellant did not substantiate a need for clarification. Possible interpretive parallels with § 23 Abs. 1 Satz 1 Nr. 1 Satz 3 EStG do not establish fundamental significance because the provisions are different and a necessary parallel interpretation was not convincingly shown.
