FHFA RIN: 2590-AA04 Publication ID: Spring 2009 
Title: Affordable Housing Program, Amendments: FHLBank Mortgage Refinancing Authority 
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 authorized, for a 2-year period, the use of AHP subsidy through the home ownership 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. FHFA issued an interim final rule that implemented those statutory changes and made any appropriate conforming amendments to the existing Finance Board AHP regulations.
