   The Low Income Housing Tax Credit Program (LIHTC) is the largest, longest standing federal program that is focused on the creation and preservation of affordable rental housing.  The LIHTC program was created by the 1986 tax reform act and has been the key federal rental housing program for over 30 years.  The program provides a subsidy to for profit and non-profit developers of affordable rental housing. Generally, housing assisted through LIHTC must have rents that are affordable to households with incomes less than 60%.
