This would depend on where you live.

In the UK, if the items purchased on the credit card were purchased solely for the business then the interest paid to the credit card company until these items were paid off might be considered a business expense. Essentially the business would be paying the credit card company interest for loaning it the money to purchase the business items. In this case proof of the interest accrued should be retained for tax records in addition to the receipts for the items purchased.

How to cancel my tax credits?

I'm not sure what you're referring to, but tax credits are either claimed or not claimed.If you claimed a tax credit and have found out that you should not have claimed the credit, you should amend your tax return. You will owe interest on any taxes you have to pay back, but if you don't amend and you are audited and the credit is removed from your return you will have more interest than if you had paid sooner and you may have penalties as well.If you don't want to claim a tax credit that you are allowed to claim, then simply don't put it on your tax return. Although the taxing agency may adjust your return if they think you made a mistake, they usually won't add tax credits if you don't claim them because they can't tell if you're eligible or not.

Paid cash for your home 119271.71 where does this amount go on your taxes for 2007?

Purchasing a house is not tax-deductible.You can deduct mortgage interest (which you do not have) and property taxes. If you received a property tax credit from the seller, which appears on the settlement sheet from your closing, you must net that against any taxes you paid during 2007. If there was any credit for taxes due in 2008, net that portion of the credit against property taxes you pay in 2008 to figure your deductible portion.
