Notice of SFY2025 GOAL Preliminary Application

In September 2024, Alaska Housing Finance Corporation (AHFC) will publish the SFY 2025 Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) for its Greater Opportunity for Affordable Living (GOAL) Program. Under this NOFA, AHFC will make grants, zero-interest loans, and Low-Income Housing Tax Credits available for competitive allocation to acquire, rehabilitate, or construct rental housing. To apply for GOAL Program funds, all applicants are required to submit a Pre-Application to AHFC through an online application system.

Applying for GOAL funding is a sequential 3-step process. Applicants must (1) register for the online application system, (2) submit a Pre-Application using the online application system and (3) submit a GOAL Application using the online application system. This notice contains requirements and deadlines for steps (1) and (2). Applicants will NOT be eligible to apply for GOAL funding unless they first meet both deadlines for steps (1) and (2).

Step (1): Registration Request for the Pre-Application is due by 4:30 p.m. (Alaska time) on July 31, 2024.

All Pre-Applicants must submit a Registration Request for access to the online application system by this deadline.

Step (2): Completed Pre-Applications must be submitted through the online application system by 4:30 p.m. (Alaska time) on August 14, 2024.

The preliminary application provides information for AHFC to determine if the proposed project meets the minimum criteria for an invitation into the full SFY 2025 GOAL competition. A full list of items that will be reviewed during the pre-application is available in the GOAL Program Rating and Award Criteria (QAP). The full SFY 2025 GOAL application, to be submitted in the Fall of 2024, will address other aspects of the proposed development in greater detail. These additional aspects are outlined in the QAP.
