Here is a short summary of the bill:

The Affordable Housing Credit Improvement Act of 2025 seeks to enhance the tax credit system for low-income housing by implementing several amendments to the Internal Revenue Code. Key objectives of the bill include:

Enhanced State Allocations

The bill proposes to increase allocations of low-income housing credits to states, intending to boost funding for affordable housing projects nationwide.

Tenant Eligibility Rules

Changes to tenant eligibility rules are also part of the legislation. These adjustments aim to make affordable housing accessible to a wider range of low-income individuals, supporting more inclusive communities.

Project Financing

The legislation focuses on project financing parameters to ensure effective funding for housing developments. This includes measures designed to facilitate financing for projects targeting extremely low-income households.

Protection for Domestic Violence Victims

A notable aspect of the bill is its emphasis on protections for domestic violence victims. The provisions aim to secure housing access for these individuals without the risk of discrimination due to their situations.

Increased Housing Credit for Certain Projects

Additionally, Section 42(d) of the Internal Revenue Code will be amended to increase tax credits for projects that allocate 20% of residential units to households earning below 30% of the median income. This amendment applies to allocations made after the bill’s enactment and obligations occurring after 2025.

The overall aim of the bill is to strengthen the low-income housing credit system, ensuring more affordable housing options for various segments of the low-income population, especially those with the greatest needs.
