FAQ Answer

The CDFI Fund is aware that some organizations are required to submit CDFI Certification Applications as part of their Performance Goal and Measures per the terms of their Assistance Agreements and may be affected by this pause. The CDFI Fund will amend Assistance Agreements to allow time for such organizations to be able to either: submit under the new CDFI Certification policies; or hold them harmless for not being able to meet the new CDFI Certification policies.
