Application Submission Instructions and Core Application Status

Please be aware of several changes in the application submission process this year:

1. Only electronic applications will be accepted this year - no paper applications. 
 
2. The core application must be submitted in both
the original Excel format as well as in PDF format. 
 
3.  A backup flash drive is required, not just recommended. 

Please review these and further details after downloading the 2016 Application Instructions.



All applicants must use a May 2016 Revision of the core application.  However, applicants wishing to claim points under any of the following Scoring sections: 

Section
8-B
: Revitalization/Redevelopment Plans                         Local Govt Adopted Revitalization Plan                  D: Concerted Revitalization Efforts Multiplier
Section 17-A: Integrated Supportive Housing                                      / Section 811 Rental Assistance
Section  19: Preservation Priority 
Section  20: Quality Education Areas    
Section  21: Workforce Housing 

must either download a current blank Core Application (May v6) from the 2016 Funding Round web page or email their existing core application to
for correction. In either case, such core apps will then have the words "May 2016 Revision v6" displayed at the top of both the Scoring tab as well as the Project Information tab for verification.
