State Housing Tax Credit Contribution Fund
1/22/2026
UPDATE: Applications to Contribute to the State Housing Tax Credit Contribution Fund Open on February 17
Minnesota Housing will begin accepting applications for contributions to the State Housing Tax Credit (SHTC) Contribution Fund on Tuesday, February 17, 2026, at 8:00 a.m. Central time. The original opening date falls on a federal holiday, so this change allows staff to be available for technical assistance.
The SHTC Program and Contribution Fund allows taxpayers to invest in housing across the state by contributing from $1,000 up to $2 million each tax year to the program fund and, in return, receive a state tax credit certificate that equals 85% of their contributions, which may be used to reduce their Minnesota state tax obligation.
