OHP administers the Preservation Tax Credit for California in partnership with the National Park Service (NPS).  The purpose of this OHP survey is to improve the quality of the preservation tax credit experience and better promote the federal tax credit program in California.  Please note that we will evaluate your comments towards improving our service and making the application and review process as user-friendly as possible.

The OHP Investment Tax Credit Client Survey will be available online until Friday, May 29th at 5 PM. It consists of five parts: Profile, Internet Interface, Application Preparation, Review Process, and Additional Comments.  There is a mixture of multiple choice and essay answers, designed to return as much detailed information as the respondents would like to give, for a total of 39 questions.  Please note that only one survey may be completed on a particular computer.

The survey results will be posted on the Architectural Review Unit page of the OHP's web site shortly after the closing date.
