Kentucky Housing Corporation (KHC) has released the 2015 Application Guidelines for the HOME Investment Partnerships Program (HOME) for Tenant Based Rental Assistance activities (TBRA).
The 2015 Application Guidelines are available on KHC's website, under Development, Single-Family, HOME Tenant-Based Rental Assistance (TBRA).
KHC will begin accepting HOME TBRA applications on the Universal Funding Application (UFA) on Wednesday, April 29, 2015. Applicants must meet minimum thresholds to submit an application. Applications will be accepted, reviewed, and approved on a first-come, first-served basis.
Minimum Thresholds Applicants must have been awarded funds for:
- HOME TBRA funds in 2012 (project numbers beginning with TB12): 90 percent expended no later than the application submission to KHC. All draw requests must be submitted to and approved by KHC no later than the application submission to KHC.
- HOME TBRA funds awarded in 2013 (project numbers beginning with TB13): 75 percent expended no later than the application submission to KHC. All draw requests must be submitted to and approved by KHC no later than the application submission to KHC.
As this is an open application round, KHC will not approve requests for waivers of the thresholds. If an applicant is not eligible at the time the application opens, but does become eligible later and funds are available, they will be allowed to apply at that time.
Ineligible Applicants
Applicants who were awarded HOME TBRA funds awarded in 2014 (project numbers beginning with TB14) are not eligible to apply to this round for TBRA funds.
Application Fee
There is a $100 non-refundable application fee for nonprofit organizations and units of local government and a $250 non-refundable application fee for for-profit applicants.
Applicants are strongly encouraged to submit their application fee prior to submitting their application. If the fee is not received within 24 hours of the date and time the application is received through the UFA, the application will be rejected.
KHC must receive the appropriate application fee, via check or money order, to the following address:
