IRS Announces New LIHTC Volume Amounts

The new volume caps are the result of a program increased approved under the Consolidated Appropriations Act.

The new low-income housing tax credit (LIHTC) volume cap is the greater of $2.70 multiplied by a state’s population or $3,105,000 as a result of an increase provided in the recent Consolidated Appropriations Act, announced the Internal Revenue Service in Rev. Procedure 2018-22.

That’s an increase from $2.40 multiplied by a state’s population or the small-state minimum of $2,765,000.

The spending bill boosts the LIHTC volume cap by 12.5% for four years.
