Several Tribes have asked whether there is a deadline of June 30, 2021 for submitting Homeownership Assistance Fund Housing Plans. Please note that the June 30 deadline does not apply to Tribes, Tribally Designated Housing Entities (TDHEs), or the Department of Hawaiian Home Lands. The September 30, 2021 deadline for applying for funds under HAF is still in place. Treasury anticipates publishing more information regarding HAF soon and will also e-mail updates to the points of contact registered in the HAF portal.

Treasury will be hosting Tribal consultation on the implementation of the HAF by Tribal governments and TDHEs on July 13, 2021 from 2:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. ET (register for the consultation). Treasury published guidance on the HAF on April 14, 2021. For more information on the consultation, including the framing questions, please e-mail tribal.consult@treasury.gov.

Comments should be submitted to tribal.consult@treasury.gov. The deadline for comments on HAF implementation is Friday, July 23, 2021, at  11:59 p.m. ET.
