The U.S. Department of the Treasury’s Community Development Financial Institutions Fund (CDFI Fund) announced today it would delay the launch of the new CDFI Certification Application past the anticipated April timeline. The CDFI Fund is determining a new launch date, but the ongoing pause on CDFI certification application submissions will remain in effect. There are revisions to the application and reporting requirements. The CDFI Fund attributed the postponement to further review of public comments to the version of the application released for public comment in the Nov. 4, 2022, Federal Register. Comments on that draft were due in December 2022.
