The Department of Housing (DOH) in collaboration with the Connecticut Housing Finance Authority (CHFA) are inviting your participation in the DEP Spring 2026. The DEP Spring 2026 facilitates continued management of a pipeline of potential projects for future funding opportunities. It is also used by those who will be seeking CHFA Low-Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC) with or without DOH assistance.
The DEP Spring 2026 is not a competitive funding round. It is intended to provide an early assessment of development proposals to help minimize the expenditure of limited predevelopment funds among our development partners.
Important Dates: Submissions will be accepted from now to May 22, 2026, with the closing date subject to change.
Submittal: DOH and CHFA will continue to utilize the joint online Preliminary Submission which covers limited scope, content, and requirements.
Review: Responses will be categorized and reviewed by the staff of DOH and CHFA. The agencies will follow up with each respondent in the manner determined to be most appropriate based on the information submitted and available for that project.
Details: Interested parties should visit Funding Opportunities and select the page for Development Engagement to access the detailed Notice and the Requirements and Instructions fortheDEP Spring 2026.
