THOMAS Documents
Tennessee Housing Online Management Application System (THOMAS) is THDA's online portal for accepting applications for Low-Income Housing Credit and Multi-family Tax-Exempt Bond Authority programs.
Each document has a notation beside it for the applicable program to which the applicant is seeking an allocation from. The documents that are denoted both can be used for the Competitive LIHC and MTBA with Non-Competitive LIHC programs, documents denoted C LIHC only are to be used for the Competitive LIHC program, documents denoted MTBA with NC LIHC only are to be used for the MTBA with NC LIHC programs, documents denoted C and NC LIHC only are to be used for both programs, and documents denoted MTBA only are to be used for the MTBA portion of the MTBA with Non-Competitive LIHC program.
For any questions regarding any supporting documentation please check our FAQ section. If you have further questions regarding our program, please contact THOMAS.
The THOMAS User Manual below will provide applicants with additional resources and instructions for both Multi-family Programs. THDA is in the process of updating guidelines, notices, and attachments for the 2023 Initial Application cycles and will publish those items in the very near future.
