Change to Funding Draw Process
Kentucky Housing Corporation (KHC) is changing the submission process of the Universal Draw Request form for all existing and new projects. This change will allow KHC to streamline processes and, in turn, provide a faster turnaround of fund requests. This also begins preparations for additional enhancements to the electronic draw process in 2015.
Beginning Sunday, February 1, 2015, the Universal Draw Request form and supporting documentation will no longer be accepted by fax or mail to applicable departments. After that date, it must be submitted via the designated email box KHCDrawRequest@kyhousing.org.
You may refer to the User Guide on any page of the Universal Draw Request form for assistance in completing the draw request. Additional guidance can be found in the Universal Draw Change Training available on KHC's website, under Specialized Housing. Please note, this process does not apply to draws for the Weatherization or LIHEAP programs.
KHC encourages agencies to sign up for Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) of funds, which will be a requirement by Wednesday, July 1, 2015, or sooner for certain program areas. The EFT Sign-Up Form is also available on KHC's website, under Specialized Housing.
If you have any questions or need help completing the request, please contact your assigned Program Representative. Also, your program representative can provide a report of projects, which may be helpful for identifying project numbers to include on the draw request. When submitting the electronic draw request, please do not copy your program representative. They will be notified of the submission.
Privacy and Confidentiality Notice: Partner agencies transmitting documentation in support of Universal Draw Request system must take every precaution necessary to ensure a customer's Non Public Information or Personally Identifiable Information (PII) is not sent to the designated email box. PII consists of but not limited to: Social Security Number, date of birth, mother's maiden name, etc.
