(Applicable to All Rental Programs)
Late Fee:
All properties that have not submitted the certification by March 15 or have submitted an
incomplete certification will be subject to a $750.00 late fee. Kentucky Housing Corporation
(KHC) now reserves the right to NOT cap the late fee assessment. KHC will consider if a
project has demonstrated a pattern of late submittals when determining if the late fee should
have a maximum cap.
Paper Submission Fee:
An additional $100 fee per project must be submitted with any paper submission of the Owner’s
Annual Certification of Compliance. If this fee is not submitted with the report, then the
certification will be considered incomplete and will be subject to late fees until paid.
Data Entry Fee – Tenant Data Collection System (TDCS):
In addition to Paper Submission Fee
For owners of multifamily rental housing electing to submit tenant data on the Building Status
Report (BSR) via email or paper, an additional data entry fee of $10 per unit or $100 per project

Housing Credit Program Only
Note: A minimum 60-day research period should be anticipated for requests and/or follow-up
review after submission of the applicable documentation in the following fees proposed.
Pre 8609 Inspection Fee:

$100 per project Pre 8609 visit
Follow-up File Inspection Fee for Section 42 Violations:

$25 per unit fee or $10 per tenant file fee – whichever is greater in each follow-up. This
fee applies to files sent to our Frankfort offices. Should the owner request Compliance
staff to travel to the managing agent’s office or another location where management
stores tenant files, an additional fee of $100 per visit will be charged.
Note: This fee applies to owners who request Compliance staff to review files to correct issues
after the close of the correction period, following a site-review where an IRS Form(s) 8823
was/were issued due to non-compliance. KHC will consider overall issues of noncompliance
when applying this additional fee(s).
Follow-up Physical Inspection Fee:

$100 per project visit
Note: This fee applies to owners who request Compliance staff to conduct a follow-up physical
inspection of a property to correct issues after the close of the correction period, following a sitereview where an IRS Form 8823(s) was/were issued due to non-compliance. It may also apply
when a site-review was conducted and the owner failed to notify the residents of potential
inspection; therefore, resulting in an open IRS Form 8823(s) due to failure to access a LIHTC
unit for inspection. Since the only resolution to correct the non-compliance event would be a reinspection conducted by KHC staff, a fee will be accessed. KHC will consider overall issues of
noncompliance when applying this additional fee(s).
Follow-up File Inspection Fee for State Extended Use Agreement Violations:

$100 per Extended Use Agreement violation issue
For example: An owner elected to furnish two picnic tables and three free-standing storage
buildings. During KHC’s cycle-review, it is discovered that the picnic tables and the storage
buildings are no longer present. If the owner does not submit evidence of correction within the
correction period that follows the findings letter, then a $200 fee will be charged to the owner
($100 per violation) for correction of the open issues, should he/she decide to submit
documentation after the review has been close-out.
Note: This fee applies to owners who have open findings of non-compliance which are not IRS
reportable (Section 42) violations, but rather, a violation of the state’s Extended Use Agreement.
The fee will be charged when an owner submits follow-up to correct the state violation(s) of noncompliance after the close of the correction period where there are uncorrected findings of noncompliance. KHC will consider overall issues of noncompliance when applying this additional
fee(s).

Qualified Contract Request Fees:
Owners requesting a Qualified Contract must submit a $3,500 non-refundable administration fee with the
request. In the event that additional third-party reports are required by a potential buyer or KHC, the
Qualified Contract process may be suspended during the time needed to prepare the reports. The cost
of the additional reports will be at the expense of the property owner. All payments for service must be
made within a timely manner. Non-cooperation by the property owner to respond to reasonable thirdparty report requests by KHC or a potential buyer will lead to the termination of the Qualified Contract
process. Non-cooperation or excessive delays by the property owner on any issues of the Qualified
Contract process will also result in the termination of the process and will result in the owner being
required to comply with the property low-income usage requirement for the remaining extended use
period.
Housing Credit, HOME, SMAL and AHTF Projects
Note: A minimum 60-day research period should be anticipated for requests and/or follow-up
review after submission of the applicable documentation in the following fees proposed.
Change in Ownership Fee:

$100 per affordable housing unit/Housing Credit unit up to a maximum of $2500
Note: Any type of change in ownership, either complete change in General Partner or change in
entities that form the GP, will result in this fee. For Housing Credit projects in which the limited
partner is removing the GP due to poor performance, KHC reserves the right to waive this fee.
In addition, KHC reserves the right to waive this fee if financially a hardship to an assuming
nonprofit.
Change in the Project Design Fee:

$100 per affordable housing unit up to a maximum of $2500
Note: This fee will be charged if an owner requests a project design element that was originally
pledged in the funding application for which points were awarded and, if approved, the change
would require legal documents to be modified. This does not include temporary waiver requests
on such set asides as homeless units or units set aside for special needs population.
