The Connecticut Housing Finance Authority (CHFA) is hosting an overview session for applicants to get general information about the HTCC Program as well as hear updates to the guidelines and rating and ranking. The session will be held on November 10, 2015 at 9:30-11:00 a.m. at Connecticut Housing Finance Authority, 999 West Street, Rocky Hill, CT.

In accordance with Connecticut General Statutes Section 8-395, as amended, and in conjunction with the State Department of Revenue, CHFA is making available $10 million in state tax credits to non-profit applicants that plan to create housing opportunities in the following classifications:

  • Workforce Housing ($1 million)
  • Supportive Housing ($2 million)
  • Other Housing Opportunities ($7 million)

A maximum of $500,000 may be awarded to each successful applicant.

Applications for funding must be submitted electronically through the SharePoint website using the Consolidated Application no later than 4:00 p.m., February 1, 2016. This is a change from last year’s electronic submissions through BizNet.

To request a SharePoint website for the HTCC round, please send an email to applicationrequest@chfa.org, per the instructions on the CHFA and DOH websites.  If you need additional assistance, a training session will be held at CHFA on Wednesday, September 30th from 9:00 – 10:00 a.m. Please RSVP to Catherine.Bitterman@chfa.org by September 25, 2015 to attend the SharePoint training session.
