Kentucky multifamily HOME- and NHTF-funded projects still in their affordability period are required to submit an annual HOME Annual Rent Approval Form (Home Rental Program Tools) and NHTF Rent Approval Form (National Housing Trust Fund Program Tools) located on the Asset Management page of KHC’s website. The 2013 HOME Final Rule is an amendment to 24 CFR 92.252(f)(2) (HOME) and 24 CFR 93-302 (HTF) which requires that a Participating Jurisdiction (PJ) review and approve rents for each HOME- and NHTF- assisted project annually to ensure the project complies with the HOME and NHTF rent limits, and to prevent undue increases that would result in a hardship for the residents.

For 2026, all HOME- and NHTF-funded multifamily projects still in their affordability period are required to submit a HOME and NHTF Annual Rent Approval Form. All completed form packages must be emailed to [email protected] by 5 pm ET Tuesday, June 30, 2026. Failure to submit the form may result in a finding and/or being placed on KHC’s Suspension and Debarment List.

The HUD-published HOME and NHTF rent limits have an effective release date of June 1, 2025.
