AHP Application
2008 Round B applications are due September 17, 2008 at 5 p.m. EDT.
> AHP Guidelines - Implementation Plan.
Read the 2008B Getting Started Instructions
before downloading the application for important information about the Excel macro settings.
There is an application for rental/lease purchase projects and a separate application for owner-occupied / homeownership projects.
All of the attachments appear as worksheets in the application.
The “Smart Score” is now a part of the workbook and a score is determined based on information input into the
application and workbook. If you would like to use the "Smart Score" in a stand alone version, one can be found
on the website with the application materials.

Determining If You Are Ready to Apply
Read the Implementation Plan. It is, in essence, a request for proposal. All applicants should thoroughly understand
the program and what they are committing to. We receive many unnecessary questions and see many errors because the
Implementation Plan wasn't read or wasn't read very carefully. If you are uncertain about whether it is an appropriate
time to submit your application, please call us. If we determine that your project is premature in its submission, it
will be excluded from the funding round.
Use common sense and good judgment—follow the application instructions and guidelines outlined in the Implementation
Plan.
PLAN AHEAD! Review the requirements of the application and workbooks as soon as possible. Waiting until
the last minute can seriously jeopardize your ability to provide accurate, quality information by the deadline.
Writing the application is a balancing act! Give us enough information to understand your project, financing details,
and other important information, but avoid "fluff" if you can. We do not care about style; we care about substance.
The process of scoring applications is very objective. Lengthy descriptions and explanations only add to the time
involved in scoring, not to the overall score.
Provide consistent information. Information that is inconsistent throughout the application and exhibits, or
inconsistent with public information available to the FHLBI, raises concerns about the project's viability.
When determining project eligibility and sponsor capacity, we will consider sponsor/member compliance and monitoring
cooperation with existing AHP awards. Make sure monitoring on other projects is up to date.
Remember, a good project begins with a good application and is built on a foundation of good documentation. Providing
good supporting documentation with your application is a good start.
