What is the Minnesota State Housing Tax Credit Contribution Program (SHTC)?
The Minnesota legislature passed a bill to incentivize taxpayers to support affordable housing projects.  Eligible Minnesota corporate and individual taxpayers can contribute to the SHTC Program fund, and, in return, receive a state Tax Credit Certificate (TCC) that equals 85% of their total contributions.

 

What is the minimum and maximum contribution?
The required minimum contribution is $1,000 with a maximum of $2 million per taxable year.

 

When can I make a contribution?
Act now to take advantage of this fund. The program is limited to granting $9.9 million each year. Once the credits are claimed, it will be closed for the remainder of the year. Funds are first-come, first-serve.
