National Park Service (NPS) requires all applications and supporting documentation in a digital format. Applications must be submitted to the State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) for initial review, revision, and comments. When (SHPO) has determined the application is ready, SHPO reviewers will forward the application to the NPS office with comments. Property owners will be informed when the application is sent to the NPS and will be contacted by the NPS office about next steps.
When submitting a Federal Tax Credit application, it is NOT necessary to submit a separate Kansas Historic Rehabilitation Tax Credit Part 1 or Part 2 application. A separate state Part 3 application will be required to request state credits for completed phases or projects.
Application information and further details can be found at the NPS website.
The following links will take you to the submission form for each application part.
Part 1
The federal Part 1 form is NOT required if the property is already individually listed in the National Register of Historic Places. If the property is located within a historic district, has multiple buildings within the same listing/lot, or the applicant is seeking a preliminary determination of individual listing, please submit the Part 1 application through the portal link below. Please be sure to use the application forms linked below with "Rev. 6/2023" in the top left.
