The Farm Worker Housing Tax Credit Program was established to provide a tax break to those constructing, rehabilitating or installing housing for farm workers. Renovation costs for normal wear and tear of existing structures are not eligible for tax credits.
Rehabilitation costs to restore housing to a habitable state are eligible.
