FY2026 COMMUNITY INVESTMENT TAX CREDIT (CITC) APPLICATION IS NOW OPEN

The Maryland Department of Housing and Community Development's Community Investment Tax Credit Program (CITC) application is now available in the DHCD Project Portal system. Applications will be accepted from Monday, May 19, 2025 until Thursday, June 19, 2025 at 5PM.

Nonprofit organizations, designated as 501(c)(3) organizations by the Internal Revenue Service, are eligible to apply for Community Investment Tax Credits (CITC) to support a project or activity that is either located in or serving a community in a Priority Funding Area. Community Investment Tax Credits support nonprofit organizations by awarding allocations of Maryland State tax credits to use as incentives to attract donation contributions from individuals and businesses to benefit local projects and services. For information and examples of approved projects from prior CITC funding rounds, visit the Give Maryland website.
