                                                            INSTRUCTIONS 
                                                                   
 The South Carolina Housing Tax Credit is available to eligible owners of residential low-income rental buildings. The credit 
 applies to projects placed in service after January 1, 2020 and before December 31, 2030. 
  
 To be eligible for the credit, a project must receive an eligibility statement issued by the South Carolina Housing and Finance 
 Development Authority (SC Housing). 
  
 The eligibility statement must: 
    certify that the project qualifies for the credit, 
    specify the amount of the credit allowed for the project, 
    include the annual amount of South Carolina Housing Tax Credit allocated to the qualified project each year of the 
      credit period, and 
    include the total amount of South Carolina Housing Tax Credit allocated to the qualified project for the entire credit 
      period.  
  
 Your South Carolina credit amount cannot exceed the federal housing credit allowed for the project. 
  
 In order to receive your eligibility statement, you must submit a report to SC Housing detailing how the credit will benefit tenants 
 at the project (for example, reduced rent) or why the credit is necessary for you to undertake the project. You can find more 
 information about the credit application and approval process at schousing.com. 
  
 The total amount of all South Carolina Housing Tax Credits that can be allocated in any calendar year cannot exceed $20 
 million, plus: 
    the total of all unallocated tax credits for any preceding years, and 
    the total amount of any previously allocated tax credits that have been recaptured, revoked, canceled, or recovered, but 
      not allocated. 
  
 You may claim the credit against your Income Taxes, License Fees, Bank Taxes, or Insurance Premium Taxes. 
  
 If a portion of any federal housing tax credit taken on a project is required to be recaptured, the taxpayer claiming a South 
 Carolina credit for that project is also required to recapture a portion of the South Carolina credit. To calculate the recapture 
 amount, use the TC-63R, available at dor.sc.gov/forms. 
  
 The credit, and any recaptured credit, must be allocated among some or all of the partners, members, or shareholders of the 
 entity owning the project. Allocation can be done in any manner agreed to, regardless of whether the partners, members, or 
 shareholders are allocated or allowed any portion of the federal housing credit. 
  
 Taxpayers receiving the credit from a pass-through entity should enter the name and FEIN of the entity earning the credit. Enter 
 the amount of credit received from the entity on line 2.

Social Security Privacy Act Disclosure 
It is mandatory that you provide your Social Security Number on this tax form if you are an individual taxpayer. 42 U.S.C. 405(c)(2)(C)(i) 
permits a state to use an individual's Social Security Number as means of identification in administration of any tax. SC Regulation 
117-201 mandates that any person required to make a return to the SCDOR must provide identifying numbers, as prescribed, for 
securing proper identification. Your Social Security Number is used for identification purposes. 

The Family Privacy Protection Act 
Under the Family Privacy Protection Act, the collection of personal information from citizens by the SCDOR is limited to the information 
necessary for the SCDOR to fulfill its statutory duties. In most instances, once this information is collected by the SCDOR, it is protected 
by law from public disclosure. In those situations where public disclosure is not prohibited, the Family Privacy Protection Act prevents 
such information from being used by third parties for commercial solicitation purposes.
