Round Announcement
EBP
Notice of Changes
Chartered member institutions work through a two-step process to access EBP funding: first, members apply to participate in the upcoming round. Then, upon receiving approval to participate, members must submit enrollment requests for funding on behalf of income-eligible home buyers. A participating member may submit enrollment requests for no more than the maximum aggregate EBP funding cap of $100,000. EBP funds are awarded to participating members in increments of up to $10,000 on a first-come, first-serve, home-buyer by home-buyer basis; EBP funds are not guaranteed or reserved in advance for any participating member.
The first one-third of a member's dollar
allocation must be used to fund first-time home buyers
(as defined by the Bank in the EBP Manual).
