MHFA LTH/HPH and HTF Reporting Deadlines

Information from Minnesota Housing regarding LTH/HPH and HTF reporting:

Minnesota Housing is now able to extract data directly from HMIS for analysis of performance, outcomes, and trends, so many projects are no longer required to submit reports. This applies to most projects with capital financing intended to serve LTH/HPH households. Housing Trust Fund (HTF) rental assistance administrators are still required to submit reports. Review the following information to see how reporting requirements impact you.

For the reporting period of October 1, 2021 through September 30, 2022 (FFY2022), reports are due on Tuesday November 1st, 2022.

Site-based Multifamily Capital Projects Serving LTH/HPH Households

All site-based projects that received capital financing to serve LTH/HPH households are expected to verify that data entry for the federal fiscal year reporting period is complete. Most projects, however, are not required to submit reports. Only projects that opened in 2022 and select projects that may benefit from additional support to clarify expectations and requirements around HMIS data entry and data quality are expected to submit reports for this reporting period. Below are links to the project lists for those needing to submit reports and those that only need to verify data entry is up to date.

  • These projects must submit required reports, which are due on Tuesday, November 1, 2022. View instructions for submitting reports for this reporting period.

  • These projects must verify data entry for the federal fiscal year reporting period is accurate and up to date by Tuesday, November 1, 2022, but do not need to submit reports.
