General
-------

The accompanying  condensed unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted  accounting  principles for interim financial
information and with the  instructions to Form 10-Q for quarterly  reports under
Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Accordingly, they do
not include all of the information and footnotes  required by generally accepted
accounting  principles  for  complete  financial  statements.  In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered
necessary for a fair presentation have been included.  Operating results for the
three and nine months ended December 31, 2001 are not necessarily  indicative of
the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2002.  For
further  information,  refer to the financial  statements and footnotes  thereto
included  in the  Partnership's  annual  report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year
ended March 31, 2001.

Organization
------------

WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund VI, L.P., Series 6 (the "Partnership") was formed on
March  3,  1997  under  the  laws of the  State  of  California,  and  commenced
operations on August 20, 1998.  Prior to August 20, 1998,  the  Partnership  was
considered a development-stage  enterprise. The Partnership was formed to invest
primarily in other limited partnerships ("the Local Limited Partnerships") which
own and operate  multi-family  housing complexes (the "Housing  Complexes") that
are eligible for low income housing tax credits. The local general partners (the
"Local   General   Partners")   of  each  Local   Limited   Partnership   retain
responsibility for developing, constructing, maintaining, operating and managing
the Housing Complex.

The general partner is WNC & Associates,  Inc. ("WNC").  Wilfred N. Cooper, Sr.,
through the Cooper Revocable Trust, owns 93.65% of the outstanding stock of WNC.
Wilfred N. Cooper, Jr., President of WNC, owns 3.01% of the outstanding stock of
WNC. The business of the Partnership is conducted  primarily  through WNC as the
Partnership has no employees of its own.

The Partnership  shall continue in full force and effect until December 31, 2052
unless terminated prior to that date,  pursuant to the partnership  agreement or
law.

The financial  statements  include only activity relating to the business of the
Partnership,  and do not give  effect to any assets that the  partners  may have
outside of their interests in the Partnership, or to any obligations,  including
income taxes, of the partners.

The  Partnership  agreement  authorized the sale of up to 25,000 units at $1,000
per Unit  ("Units").  As of December 31, 2001 and March 31, 2001,  20,500 units,
representing  subscriptions  in the amount of  $20,456,595,  net of discounts of
$27,305 for volume  purchases and dealer discounts of $16,100 had been accepted.
The General  Partner has 1% interest in  operating  profits and losses,  taxable
income and losses,  cash available for distribution from the Partnership and tax
credits of the Partnership. The limited partners will be allocated the remaining
99% of these items in proportion to their respective investments.

After the limited  partners  have received  proceeds from a sale or  refinancing
equal to their capital  contributions and their return on investment (as defined
in the  Partnership  Agreement)  and the General  Partner has received  proceeds
equal  to its  capital  contribution  and a  subordinated  disposition  fee  (as
described in Note 4) from the  remainder,  any  additional  sale or  refinancing
proceeds will be distributed 90% to the limited partners (in proportion to their
respective investments) and 10% to the General Partner.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued
--------------------------------------------------------------

Risks and Uncertainties
-----------------------

The Partnership's  investments in Local Limited  Partnerships are subject to the
risks incident to the management and ownership of low-income  housing and to the
management and ownership of multi-unit  residential  real estate.  Some of these
risks  are that the low  income  housing  credit  could be  recaptured  and that
neither the  Partnership's  investments  nor the Housing  Complexes owned by the
Local Limited Partnerships will be readily marketable. To the extent the Housing
Complexes  receive  government  financing  or operating  subsidies,  they may be
subject to one or more of the following risks: difficulties in obtaining tenants
for the Housing Complexes; difficulties in obtaining rent increases; limitations
on cash distributions; limitations on sales or refinancing of Housing Complexes;
limitations on transfers of Local Limited Partnership Interests;  limitations on
removal of Local General Partners; limitations on subsidy programs; and possible
changes in applicable regulations.  The Housing Complexes are or will be subject
to  mortgage  indebtedness.  If a Local  Limited  Partnership  does not make its
mortgage payments, the lender could foreclose resulting in a loss of the Housing
Complex  and  low-income  housing  credits.  As a limited  partner  of the Local
Limited Partnerships, the Partnership will have very limited rights with respect
to management of the Local  Limited  Partnerships,  and will rely totally on the
Local General  Partners of the Local Limited  Partnerships for management of the
Local Limited Partnerships.  The value of the Partnership's  investments will be
subject  to  changes  in  national  and  local  economic  conditions,  including
unemployment  conditions,  which could adversely  impact vacancy levels,  rental
payment  defaults and operating  expenses.  This, in turn,  could  substantially
increase  the  risk of  operating  losses  for  the  Housing  Complexes  and the
Partnership.  In addition,  each Local Limited  Partnership  is subject to risks
relating  to  environmental  hazards  and  natural  disasters,  which  might  be
uninsurable. Because the Partnership's operations will depend on these and other
factors  beyond  the  control  of the  General  Partner  and the  Local  General
Partners,  there can be no assurance  that the  anticipated  low income  housing
credits will be available to Limited Partners.

In addition,  Limited  Partners are subject to risks in that the rules governing
the low income  housing  credit are  complicated,  and the use of credits can be
limited.  The only  material  benefit from an investment in Units may be the low
income housing credits. There are limits on the transferability of Units, and it
is unlikely that a market for Units will develop.  All management decisions will
be made by the General Partner.

Method of Accounting For Investments in Local Limited Partnerships
------------------------------------------------------------------

The Partnership  accounts for its investments in Limited  Partnerships using the
equity method of  accounting,  whereby the  Partnership  adjusts its  investment
balance for its share of the Local Limited  Partnership's  results of operations
and for any distributions received. The accounting policies of the Local Limited
Partnerships  are  consistent  with  the  Partnership.  Costs  incurred  by  the
Partnership  in  acquiring  the  investments  are  capitalized  as  part  of the
investment and amortized over 30 years (see Note 3).

Offering Expenses
-----------------

Offering  expenses consist of underwriting  commissions,  legal fees,  printing,
filing and  recordation  fees,  and other  costs  incurred  with the  selling of
limited  partnership  interests  in the  Partnership.  The  General  Partner  is
obligated  to pay all  offering  and  organization  costs  in  excess  of  14.5%
(including sales commissions) of the total offering proceeds.  Offering expenses
are  reflected  as a reduction  of limited  partners'  capital  and  amounted to
$2,817,761 as of December 31, 2001 and March 31, 2001.

NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES, continued
--------------------------------------------------------------

Use of Estimates
----------------

The preparation of financial  statements in conformity  with generally  accepted
accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect  the  reported  amounts  of assets  and  liabilities  and  disclosure  of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial  statements,  and
the  reported  amounts of revenues  and expenses  during the  reporting  period.
Actual results could materially differ from those estimates.

Cash and Cash Equivalents
-------------------------

The Partnership  considers all highly liquid investments with remaining maturity
of three months or less when  purchased to be cash  equivalents.  As of December
31,  2001 and March 31,  2001 the  Partnership  had cash  equivalents  of $0 and
$815,000, respectively.

Net Income Per Limited Partner Unit
-----------------------------------

Net income per limited  partner  unit is  calculated  pursuant to  Statement  of
Financial  Accounting Standards No. 128, Earnings Per Share. Net income per unit
includes no dilution  and is computed by dividing  income  available  to limited
partners by the weighted average number of units outstanding  during the period.
Calculation of diluted net income per unit is not required.

Concentration of Credit Risk
----------------------------

At  December  31,  2001 and March 31,  2001,  the  Partnership  maintained  cash
balances at certain  financial  institutions in excess of the federally  insured
maximum.

Reporting Comprehensive Income
------------------------------

In June 1997,  the FASB  issued  Statement  of  Financial  Accounting  Standards
("SFAS") No. 130, Reporting  Comprehensive  Income.  This statement  establishes
standards for reporting the components of comprehensive income and requires that
all items that are  required to be  recognized  under  accounting  standards  as
components of comprehensive  income be included in a financial statement that is
displayed with the same prominence as other financial statements.  Comprehensive
income  includes net income as well as certain items that are reported  directly
within a separate  component  of  Partners'  equity and bypass net  income.  The
Partnership  adopted the  provisions of this  statement in 1998. For the periods
presented,  the Partnership has no elements of other  comprehensive  income,  as
defined by SFAS No. 130.

Reclassification
----------------

Certain  prior  period  balances  have  been  reclassified  to  conform  to  the
presentation for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2001.

NOTE 2 - LOAN RECEIVABLE
------------------------

Loan receivable represents amounts loaned by the Partnership to certain Local
Limited Partnerships in which the Partnership may invest. These loans are
generally applied against the first capital contribution due if the Partnership
ultimately invests in such entities. In the event that the Partnership does not
invest in such entities, the loans are to be repaid with interest at a rate
which is equal to the rate charged to the holder (11.5% and 8.5% at December 31,
2001 and 2000, respectively). A loan receivable with a balance of $50,000 at
December 31, 2001 is due from one Local Limited Partnership, in which an
interest was not acquired.

NOTE 3 - INVESTMENTS IN LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS
--------------------------------------------

As of December 31, 2001 and March 31, 2001, the Partnership had acquired Limited
Partnership  interests in fifteen and twelve Local Limited  Partnerships each of
which owns one Housing Complex,  except for one Local Limited  Partnership which
owns three Housing Complexes, consisting of an aggregate of 607 apartment units.
As of December 31, 2001,  construction or  rehabilitation  of two of the Housing
Complexes was still in process.  The  respective  general  partners of the Local
Limited  Partnerships  manage  the  day  to  day  operations  of  the  entities.
Significant Local Limited  Partnership  business decisions require approval from
the Partnership. The Partnership, as a limited partner, is generally entitled to
99.9%,  as  specified  in  the  Local  Limited  Partnership  agreements,  of the
operating  profits and losses,  taxable income and losses and tax credits of the
Local Limited Partnerships.

Distributions  received by limited  partners are accounted for as a reduction of
the investment balance.  Distributions received after the investment has reached
zero are recognized as income.  As of December 31, 2001, no investment  accounts
in Local Limited Partnerships had reached a zero balance.

Following  is a summary of the equity  method  activity  of the  investments  in
limited partnerships as of:

</TABLE>

Certain Local Limited  Partnerships have incurred  significant  operating losses
and  have  working  capital  deficiencies.  In the  event  these  Local  Limited
Partnerships continue to incur significant operating losses,  additional capital
contributions  by the  Partnership  and/or  the  Local  General  Partner  may be
required  to sustain  the  operations  of such Local  Limited  Partnerships.  If
additional  capital  contributions  are not made  when  they are  required,  the
Partnership's  investment in certain of such Local Limited Partnerships could be
impaired, and the loss and recapture of the related tax credits could occur.

NOTE 4 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
-----------------------------------

Under the terms of the  Partnership  Agreement,  the  Partnership has paid or is
obligated to the General Partner or its affiliates for the following items:

(a)  An annual asset  management  fee not to exceed 0.2% of the Invested  Assets
     (defined as the Partnership's  capital  contributions  plus reserves of the
     Partnership of up to 5% of gross proceeds plus its allocable  percentage of
     the mortgage debt  encumbering the Housing  Complexes) of the Local Limited
     Partnerships.  Management  fees of $44,856 and $43,358 were incurred during
     the nine months ended  December 31, 2001 and 2000,  respectively,  of which
     $29,527 and $40,548  were paid during the nine months  ended  December  31,
     2001 and 2000, respectively.

(b)  A subordinated  disposition fee in an amount equal to 1% of the sales price
     of real estate  sold.  Payment of this fee is  subordinated  to the limited
     partners  receiving a preferred return of 12% through December 31, 2008 and
     6% thereafter (as defined in the Partnership Agreement) and is payable only
     if the  General  Partner or its  affiliates  render  services  in the sales
     effort. No disposition fees have been paid.

NOTE 5 - PAYABLES TO LIMITED PARTNERSHIPS
-----------------------------------------

Payables to limited  partnerships  represent  amounts,  which are due at various
times based on conditions specified in the limited partnership agreements. These
contributions  are payable in  installments  and are due upon the Local  Limited
Partnerships  achieving certain operating and development  benchmarks (generally
within two years of the Partnership's initial investment).

NOTE 6 - INCOME TAXES
---------------------

No provision  for income taxes has been recorded in the  accompanying  financial
statement,  as any liability for income taxes is the  obligation of the partners
of the Partnership.

Item 2. Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations

Forward Looking Statements

With  the  exception  of  the  discussion  regarding   historical   information,
"Management's  Discussion  and  Analysis of Financial  Condition  and Results of
Operations"  and other  discussions  elsewhere in this Form 10-Q contain forward
looking statements. Such statements are based on current expectations subject to
uncertainties and other factors,  which may involve known and unknown risks that
could  cause  actual  results  of  operations  to differ  materially  from those
projected or implied. Further, certain forward-looking statements are based upon
assumptions about future events, which may not prove to be accurate.

Risks and uncertainties  inherent in forward looking statements include, but are
not  limited  to,  our  future  cash  flows and  ability  to  obtain  sufficient
financing, level of operating expenses, conditions in the low income housing tax
credit property market and the economy in general, as well as legal proceedings.
Historical  results are not necessarily  indicative of the operating results for
any future period.

Subsequent  written and oral forward  looking  statements  attributable to us or
persons  acting on our behalf  are  expressly  qualified  in their  entirety  by
cautionary  statements  in this Form 10-Q and in other reports we filed with the
Securities and Exchange  Commission.  The following discussion should be read in
conjunction  with  the  Financial  Statements  and the  Notes  thereto  included
elsewhere in this filing.

The following discussion and analysis compares the results of operations for the
nine months ended  December 31, 2001 and 2000, and should be read in conjunction
with the condensed  financial  statements and accompanying notes included within
this report.

Financial Condition

The Partnership's assets at December 31, 2001 consisted primarily of $779,000 in
cash and cash equivalents, net investments in fifteen Local Limited Partnerships
of $15,074,000,  and a deposit on one prospective  acquisition of $50,000, which
has been subsequently  rejected by the Partnership.  Liabilities at December 31,
2001  primarily  consisted  of  $246,000 of capital  contributions  due to Local
Limited Partnerships and $38,000 of accrued fees and expenses due to the General
Partner and affiliates.

Results of Operations

Three Months Ended December 31, 2001 Compared to Three Months Ended December 31,
2000.  The  Partnership's  net loss for the three months ended December 31, 2001
was $(309,000),  reflecting an increase of approximately $(142,000) from the net
loss of $(167,000) for the three months ended December 31, 2000. The increase in
net loss was  primarily  due to equity in losses of limited  partnerships  which
increased by $(139,000) to  $(281,000)  for the three months ended  December 31,
2001 from  $(142,000)  for the three months ended December 31, 2000. In addition
to the  increase  in  equity  in  losses  of  limited  partnerships,  loss  from
operations  increased  by  $(3,000)  to  $(28,000)  for the three  months  ended
December 31, 2001 from  $(25,000) for the three months ended  December 31, 2000.
Loss from  operations  increased  due to interest  income  decreased by $11,000,
which was offset by a decrease  in  operating  expenses by $9,000 to $36,000 for
the three months ended December 31, 2001 from $45,000 for the three months ended
December 31, 2000.

Nine Months Ended  December 31, 2001 Compared to Nine Months Ended  December 31,
2000. The Partnership's net loss for the nine months ended December 31, 2001 was
$(760,000), reflecting an increase of $(366,000) from the net loss of $(394,000)
for the nine  months  ended  December  31,  2000.  The  increase in net loss was
primarily  due to equity in losses of limited  partnerships  which  increased by
$(288,000)  to  $(661,000)  for the nine  months  ended  December  31, 2001 from
$(373,000)  for the nine months  ended  December  31,  2000.  In addition to the
increase  in  equity in losses of  limited  partnerships,  loss from  operations
increased by $78,000 to $(100,000)  for the nine months ended  December 31, 2001
from $(22,000) for the nine months ended December 31, 2000. Loss from operations
increased due to interest  income  decreasing  by $83,000,  which is offset by a
decrease in  operating  expenses by $5,000 to $129,000 for the nine months ended
December 31, 2001 from $134,000 for the nine months ended  December 31, 2000 due
to the  increase  of  accounting  fees,  offset by a decline of other  operating
expenses.

Item 2. Management's  Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operations-continued

Cash Flows

Nine Months Ended  December 31, 2001 Compared to Nine Months Ended  December 31,
2000.  Net decrease in cash during the nine months  ended  December 31, 2001 was
$(374,000)  compared to net cash decrease for the nine months ended December 31,
2000 of  $(3,299,000),  reflecting a decrease of  $(2,925,000).  The decrease is
primarily  due  to  cash  used  in  net  investing   activities   decreasing  by
approximately  $(3,032,000)  from net  cash  used of  $(3,358,000)  for the nine
months  ended  December  31,  2000 to net cash used of  $(326,000)  for the nine
months ended December 31, 2001. This was offset by approximately $97,000 decline
from $49,000 of net cash  provided by operating  activities  for the nine months
ending December 31, 2000, to net cash used by operating  activities of $(48,000)
for  December  31,  2001 along with a decline  of  $10,000 of cash  provided  by
financing  activities  for the nine months ended December 31, 2000 to $0 for the
nine months ended December 31, 2001.

The Partnership  expects its future cash flows,  together with its net available
assets  at  December  31,  2001,  to be  sufficient  to  meet  all  future  cash
requirements.
