Commissioner, HUD.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: This notice announces the mortgage insurance premiums (MIPs) 
for Federal Housing Administration (FHA) multifamily mortgage insurance 
programs that have commitments to be issued or reissued in Fiscal Year 
(FY) 2009. The FY2009 MIPs are the same as in FY2008. This annual 
notice includes for the first time two additional MIPs for the hospital 
mortgage insurance programs: (1) Supplemental loans for hospitals; and 
(2) refinancing for existing FHA-insured hospitals. These are not new 
MIPs and the amounts charged for them will be the same as in previous 
years.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    HUD's multifamily housing mortgage insurance regulation at 24 CFR 
207.254 provides as follows:

    Notice of future premium changes will be published in the 
Federal Register. The Department will propose MIP changes for 
multifamily mortgage insurance programs and provide a 30-day public 
comment period for the purpose of accepting comments on whether the 
proposed changes are appropriate.

    Under this regulation, HUD is required to publish a notice for 
public comment only when there are premium ``changes.'' Since HUD is 
not seeking to implement any premium changes for FY2009 for the 
multifamily mortgage insurance programs listed in this notice, a notice 
and public comment is not required. HUD is merely providing this notice 
to ensure that there is clarity as to the multifamily insured housing 
MIPs for FY2009, and is not seeking public comments.

II. Low-Income Housing Tax Credits

    MIP rates for many multifamily FHA mortgage programs depend on 
whether or not the sponsor is combining low-income housing tax credits 
with the FHA-insured loan. Under the Department of Housing and Urban 
Development Reform Act of 1989 (Pub. L. 101-235, approved December 15, 
1989), and HUD's implementing instructions, a sponsor is required to 
submit a certification regarding governmental assistance, including any 
low-income housing tax credits, with mortgage insurance applications.

III. MIPs for Multifamily Programs for FY 2009

    This notice announces the MIPs that will be in effect during FY2009 
for the multifamily housing programs listed in this notice and for 
FHA's hospital mortgage insurance program authorized under section 242 
of the National Housing Act, 12 U.S.C. 1715z-7. Section 241(a) 
Supplemental Loans and Section 223(a)(7) Refinancing of existing FHA-
insured mortgages under Section 242 Hospital Program, which is overseen 
by FHA's Office of Insured Health Care Facilities, have been added for 
the first time to the MIP table in this annual notice. No changes in 
the basis points charged on multifamily loan and hospital programs are 
proposed for FY2009. The effective date for these mortgage insurance 
premiums is October 1, 2008.

Credit Subsidy

    This notice also announces that a credit subsidy obligation 
continues to be required for the three sections of the National Housing 
Act listed below. However, if the mortgagor's equity is produced from 
low-income housing tax credits (LIHTC) for Sections 221(d)(3) or 
241(a), a credit subsidy obligation will not be required. For the loans 
requiring a credit subsidy obligation, the program office inserts a 
special clause into the firm commitment or an invitation pertaining to 
a Site Appraisal and Market Analysis (SAMA)/Feasibility/Multifamily 
Accelerated Processing (MAP) letter. The clause states that the firm 
commitment is contingent upon availability of funds.
     Section 221(d)(3) New Construction/Substantial 
Rehabilitation for Nonprofit/Cooperatives.
     Section 223(d) Operating Loss Loans for both apartments 
and health care facilities.
     Section 241(a) Supplemental Loans for additions or 
improvements for apartments only.
