CDFA has taken the lead nationally to bring the tax increment finance industry together through the creation of the Tax Increment Finance Coalition (TIFC). The TIFC is a standing coalition within CDFA dedicated to professionals and organizations working in the tax increment finance industry. In developing the TIFC, CDFA becomes the first national organization to address tax increment financing head on.

CDFA Legislative Team Working to Address Federal Taxation on Partnerships Receiving Capital Contributions from TIFs
CDFA is working with the International Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC) to address federal taxation issues concerning partnerships who receive capital contributions from tax increment financed projects. Section 118 of the federal tax code does not currently apply income tax exemptions to partnerships who receive capital contributions such as TIFs. This technical error has caused many partnership driven development projects to not materialize and CDFA and ICSC are working to introduce legislation in Congress to eliminate this restriction.
