Title: ●Affordable Housing Program for Federal Home Loan Banks 
Abstract: The Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 amended section 10 of the Federal Home Loan Bank Act, relating to the Affordable Housing Program (AHP) administered by each of the Federal Home Loan Banks. The amendment authorizes, for a 2-year period, the use of AHP subsidy through the homeownership set-aside program to refinance certain qualifying mortgage loans. Such loans must be secured by a first mortgage on a primary residence of any family having an income at or below 80 percent of the median income for the area. The rulemaking would implement those statutory changes and make any appropriate conforming amendments to the existing Finance Board AHP regulations.
