2027 Needs Data Guidance
The IHBG regulations at 24 CFR §1000.336(d) requires that Tribes and Tribally Designated Housing Entities (TDHEs) submit documentation supporting Census challenges by March 30, 2026 to be considered for the upcoming fiscal year (FY) allocation. The deadline to submit Census challenges to the data used in computing the FY 2027 IHBG formula allocation is March 30, 2026. Since this data was not available to Tribes/TDHEs until August 1, 2025, a waiver and an extension of the deadline to May 29, 2026, is provided to give Tribes/TDHEs a similar amount of time as they had in prior FYs to review their Needs data.
Should you have any additional comments or questions, please contact the IHBG Formula Customer Service Center at 800-410-8808 or IHBGformula@firstpic.org.
