I am assuming you are looking for a first time home buyer credit. No this is a refinance not purchase. Closing Costs could possibly still be deducted on taxes but check with your tax advisor on that.

Can you refinance your house after getting a home equity line of credit?
Technically, yes, but the home equity line of credit is a lien against your home and will have to be paid off when you refinance the house. In reality, many people find that the unpaid balance on the HELOC, plus the unpaid balance on the original mortgage, exceeds the amount the bank will lend on the refinance. Before you apply for the refinance, just talk with your lender. They can probably walk you through the numbers on the phone and determine pretty quickly whether or not you have enough equity to refinance. If you bought your home several years ago, you may have to have an appraisal done to find out the maximum amount the bank will lend.
