Wisconsin Housing and Economic Development Authority has posted the annual Management Agent Certification Process for the 2018 Low Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program. As with the 2017 cycle, Management agents are no longer individually scored for LIHTC applications.
Management agents that wish to become certified for the 2018 LIHTC process must submit to WHEDA a 2018 Agent Certification Worksheet by Friday, September 1, 2017. WHEDA will then evaluate each agent and send a certification or denial letter. Management agents should supply a copy of this certification letter to developers that are submitting LIHTC applications to be included in their submission packets.
This is an annual process that will be required each year for agents to be eligible to be listed on the current LIHTC application round.
NOTE: This is NOT a requirement for agents currently managing tax credit projects. It is only a requirement for agents that wish to be listed on 2018 LIHTC applications.
