                                 PART I
Item 1.  Business

   Gateway Tax Credit Fund, Ltd. ("Gateway") is a Florida limited partnership. The general partners are Raymond James Tax Credit Funds, Inc., the Managing General Partner, and Raymond James Partners, Inc. both of which are sponsors of Gateway Tax Credit Fund, Ltd. and wholly-owned subsidiaries of Raymond James Financial, Inc. Gateway was formed October 27, 1987 and commenced operations as of June 30, 1988 with the first admission of Limited Partners.

   Gateway is engaged in only one industry segment, to acquire limited partnership interests in unaffiliated limited partnerships ("Project Partnerships"), each of which owns and operates one or more apartment complexes eligible for Low-Income Housing Tax Credits under Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code ("Tax Credits"), received over a ten year period. Subject to certain limitations, Tax Credits may be used by Gateway's investors to reduce their income tax liability generated from other income sources. Gateway will terminate on December 31, 2040 or sooner, in accordance with the terms of its Limited Partnership Agreement. Gateway closed its initial offering of Limited Partnership Interests on March 1, 1990 after receiving capital contributions of $1,000 from the General Partners and $25,566,000 from Limited Partners.

   Operating profits and losses, cash distributions from operations and Tax Credits are allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partners. Profit or loss and cash distributions from sales of interests in Project Partnerships will be allocated as described in the Limited Partnership Agreement.

   Gateway has invested in 82 Project Partnerships, acquiring a 99% interest in these properties by becoming the sole limited partner in the Project Partnerships that own the properties. In October, 1996 Value Partners, Inc., an affiliate of Raymond James Tax Credit Funds, Inc., became the sole general partner of one of the Project Partnerships, Village Apartments of Sparta, Limited Partnership ("Sparta"). In October, 1997, Value Partners became the sole general partner of Village Apartments of Divernon ("Divernon") See Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations for additional details.

   The primary sources of funds for the year ended March 31, 2003 were from the maturity of Treasury Notes for $486,001, interest income of $10,417 earned on cash and cash equivalents, and $117,539 in distributions received from Project Partnerships. As of March 31, 2003 Gateway had $1,343,666 of Cash and Cash Equivalents and $616,048 in investments in securities with annual maturities each year until 2004, which will be used to meet future annual operating needs of Gateway.

   All Project Partnerships are government subsidized. Most have mortgage loans from the Farmers Home Administration (now called USDA Rural Development) ("USDA RD") under Section 515 of the Housing Act of 1949. These mortgage loans are made at low interest rates for multi-family housing in rural and suburban areas, with the requirement that the interest savings be passed on to low income tenants in the form of lower rents. A significant portion of the Project Partnerships also receive rental assistance from USDA RD to subsidize certain qualifying tenants.

   The General Partners do not believe the Project Partnerships are subject to the risks generally associated with conventionally financed nonsubsidized apartment properties. Risks related to the operations of Gateway are described in detail on pages 21 through 33 of the Prospectus, as supplemented, under the caption "Risk Factors" which is incorporated herein by reference.

   The investment objectives of Gateway are to:

   1)  Provide tax benefits to Limited Partners in the form of Tax Credits during        the period in which each Project is eligible to claim tax credits;
   2)  Preserve and protect the capital contributions of Investors;
   3)  Participate in any capital appreciation in the value of the Projects; and
   4)  Provide passive losses to individual investors to offset passive        income from other passive activities, and provide passive losses to corporate        investors to offset business income.

   The investment objectives and policies of Gateway are described in detail on pages 33 through 38 of the Prospectus, as supplemented, under the caption "Investment Objectives and Policies" which is incorporated herein by reference.

   Gateway's goal was to invest in a diversified portfolio of Project Partnerships located in rural and suburban locations with a high demand for low income housing. As of March 31, 2003 the capital contributions raised from Limited Partner investors were successfully invested in Project Partnerships which met the investment criteria. Management anticipates that competition for tenants will only be with other low income housing projects, and not with conventionally financed housing. With significant number of rural American households living below the poverty level in substandard housing, management believes there will be a continuing demand for affordable low income housing for the foreseeable future.

   Gateway has no direct employees. The General Partners have full and exclusive discretion in management and control of Gateway.

Item 2.  Properties

   Gateway owns interest in properties through 99% limited partnership interests in 82 Project Partnerships. There are no investments in individual Project Partnerships which are material to Gateway taken as a whole with the largest single investment comprising 7.2% of Gateway's total assets. The following table provides certain summary information regarding the Projects in which Gateway had an interest, excluding Sparta and Divernon, as of December 31, 2002:

Item 7. Controls and Procedures

  Within 90 days prior to the filing of this report, under the supervision and with the participation of the Partnership's management, including the Partnership's chief executive and chief financial officers, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Partnership's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-14(c) under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934) was performed. Based on this evaluation, such officers have concluded that the Partnership's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the date of that evaluation in alerting them in a timely manner to material information relating to the Partnership required to be included in this report and the Partnership's other reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. There were no significant changes in the Partnership's internal controls or in other factors that could significantly affect these controls subsequent to the date of their evaluation.

Item 8. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Results of Operations -

   Gateway commenced operations June 30, 1988. During the offering period, Gateway received $25,566,000 in capital contributions from investors. The proceeds available for investment from the capital contributions were used to acquire interests in Project Partnerships. At December 31, 1989, Gateway owned an interest in 65 Project Partnerships, and since December 31, 1990, Gateway has owned an interest in 82 Project Partnerships. There are no unusual events or trends to describe.

   As disclosed on the Statements of Operations, interest income was comparable for the years ended March 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001. Total expense for the year ended March 31, 2003 was $878,784, which is comparable for the years ended March 31, 2002 and 2001.

   Equity in Losses of Project Partnerships decreased from $366,069 for the year ended March 31, 2001 to $202,920 for the year ended March 31, 2002 and increased to $253,927 for the year ended March 31, 2003. As presented in Note 8, Gateway's share of net loss decreased from $2,595,555 in 2001 to $2,352,749 in 2002 and increased to $2,551,053 for the year ended March 31,2003. Suspended Losses decreased from $2,249,486 in 2001 to $2,149,829 in 2002 and increased to $2,297,126 for the year ended March 31, 2003. These losses would reduce the investment in certain Project Partnerships below zero. In general, it is common in the real estate industry to experience losses for financial and tax reporting purposes because of the non-cash expenses of depreciation and amortization. (For the twelve months ending December 31, 2002, December 31, 2001, and December 31, 2000, the Project Partnerships reported depreciation and amortization expense of $3,508,268, $3,520,633, and $3,540,410, respectively). As a result, management expects Gateway will continue to report its equity in Project Partnerships as a loss for tax and financial reporting purposes.

   Overall, management believes Gateway is operating as expected and the Project Partnerships are generating tax credits which meet projections. However, there are two Project Partnerships that have experienced significant operating problems which are described below. Management does not expect any material adverse effect to Gateway from these Project Partnerships.

   On October 1, 1997 Value Partners, Inc. became the sole general partner of Village Apartments of Divernon Limited Partnership ("Divernon"), replacing the former general partners. Value Partners, Inc. is an affiliate of Raymond James Tax Credit Funds, Inc., the managing general partner of Gateway. Divernon is a 12 unit property located in Divernon, Illinois in which Gateway invested as the sole limited partner on October 1, 1989. The property's average occupancy rate for the year improved from 92% in 2001 to 100% in 2002. Gateway loaned Divernon $9,000, $10,000, and $12,000 to cover the operating deficits for 2000, 2001, and 2002 respectively. It is projected to require additional loans from Gateway including an estimated $11,000 for 2003. As of June 30, 1999, an updated workout plan with the USDA RD was implemented. Management is using rent incentives, vigorous advertising, and tight controls over repairs and maintenance to improve occupancy and cash flows in 2003.

A Project Partnership located in Denver, Colorado had been experiencing cash shortages from operations in 1999 and 2000 due to increasing maintenance needs and a lengthy eviction process for bad tenants. Gateway loaned the partnership $40,000 in 2000 for the reduction of accounts payable and necessary capital improvements. As of March 31, 2003, the project is no longer experiencing cash shortages and is expected to pay back the loan within one year.

   Gateway paid no cash distributions in the fiscal years ended March 31, 2000, 2001, and 2002 and management does not anticipate distributions in the foreseeable future.

Liquidity and Capital Resources -

   Gateway's capital resources are used to pay General and Administrative operating costs including personnel, supplies, data processing, travel, and legal and accounting associated with the administration and monitoring of Gateway and the Project Partnerships. The capital resources are also used to pay the Asset Management Fee due the Managing General Partner, but only to the extent that Gateway's remaining resources are sufficient to fund Gateway's ongoing needs. (Payment of any Asset Management Fee due but unpaid at the time Gateway sells its interests in the Project Partnerships is subordinated to the investors return of their original capital contribution.)

   The sources of funds to pay the operating costs are short term investments and interest earned thereon, the maturity of U.S. Treasury Security Strips ("Zero Coupon Treasuries") which were purchased with funds set aside for this purpose, and cash distributed to Gateway from the operations of the Project Partnerships. At March 31, 2003, Gateway had $1,343,666 of short term investments (Cash and Cash Equivalents). It also had $616,048 in Zero Coupon Treasuries with maturities providing $514,000 in fiscal year 2003 and $142,000 in fiscal year 2004. Management believes these sources of funds are sufficient to meet Gateway's current and ongoing operating costs for the foreseeable future, and to pay part of the Asset Management Fee.

   For the year ending March 31, 2003, Gateway received $117,539 in cash distributions from the Project Partnerships and it received $486,000 from the matured Zero Coupon Treasuries. The General and Administrative operating costs were $131,270 and the Asset Management Fee actually paid was $317,991.

Item 9.  Financial Statements and Supplementary Data




INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT


To the Partners of
   Gateway Tax Credit Fund, Ltd.

   We have audited the accompanying combined balance sheets of Gateway Tax Credit Fund, Ltd. (a Florida Limited Partnership) as of March 31, 2003 and 2002 and the related combined statements of operations, partners' equity (deficit), and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2003. These combined financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these combined financial statements based on our audits. We did not audit the financial statements of certain Project Partnerships for which $14,655,624 and $14,398,908 of cumulative equity in losses are included in these financial statements as of March 31, 2003 and 2002, respectively and for which net losses of $256,716, $202,918 and $360,034 are included in the accompanying financial statements for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2003. Those financial statements were audited by other auditors whose reports have been furni shed to us, and our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts included for such underlying partnerships, is based solely on the reports of the other auditors.

   We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the combined financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the combined financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits and the reports of other auditors provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

   In our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors, the combined financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Gateway Tax Credit Fund, Ltd. as of March 31, 2003 and 2002 and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 2003, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

   Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The schedules listed under Item 14(a)(2) in the index are presented for purposes of complying with the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and are not part of the basic financial statements. These schedules have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, based on our audits and the reports of other auditors, fairly state in all material respects the financial data required to be set forth therein in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

GATEWAY TAX CREDIT FUND, LTD.
(A Florida Limited Partnership)
NOTES TO COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
March 31, 2003, 2002 AND 2001

NOTE 1 - ORGANIZATION:

   Gateway Tax Credit Fund, Ltd. ("Gateway"), a Florida Limited Partnership, was formed October 27, 1987 under the laws of Florida. Operations commenced on June 30, 1988. Gateway invests, as a limited partner, in other limited partnerships ("Project Partnerships"), each of which owns and operates apartment complexes expected to qualify for Low-Income Housing Tax Credits. Gateway will terminate on December 31, 2040 or sooner, in accordance with the terms of the Limited Partnership Agreement. Gateway closed the offering on March 1, 1990 after receiving Limited and General Partner capital contributions of $25,566,000 and $1,000, respectively. The fiscal year of Gateway for reporting purposes ends on March 31.

   Raymond James Partners, Inc. and Raymond James Tax Credit Funds, Inc., wholly-owned subsidiaries of Raymond James Financial, Inc., are the General Partner and Managing General Partner, respectively. The Managing General Partner manages and controls the business of Gateway.

   Operating profits and losses, cash distributions from operations and tax credits are allocated 99% to the Limited Partners and 1% to the General Partners. Profit or loss and cash distributions from sales of properties will be allocated as formulated in the Limited Partnership Agreement.

NOTE 2 - SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:

   Combined Statements

   The accompanying statements include, on a combined basis, the accounts of Gateway, Village Apartments of Sparta Limited Partnership and Village Apartments of Divernon Limited Partnership ("Combined Entities"), two Project Partnerships in which Gateway has invested. As of October 1, 1996 and October 1, 1997, respectively, an affiliate of Gateway's Managing General Partner, Value Partners, Inc. became the general partner of the Combined Entities. Since the general partner of the Combined Entities is now an affiliate of Gateway, these combined financial statements include the financial activity of the Combined Entities for all years presented. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Gateway has elected to report the results of operations of the Combined Entities on a 3-month lag basis, consistent with the presentation of financial information of all Project Partnerships.

   Basis of Accounting

   Gateway utilizes the accrual basis of accounting whereby revenues are recognized when earned and expenses are recognized when obligations are incurred.

   Gateway accounts for its investments as the sole limited partner in Project Partnerships ("Investments in Project Partnerships"), with the exception of the Combined Entities, using the equity method of accounting, because management believes that Gateway does not have a majority control of the major operating and financial policies of the Project Partnerships in which it invests, and reports the equity in losses of the Project Partnerships on a 3-month lag in the Statements of Operations. Under the equity method, the Investments in Project Partnerships initially include:

    1)  Gateway's capital contribution,
    2)  Acquisition fees paid to the General Partner for services rendered in         selecting properties for acquisition, and
    3)  Acquisition expenses including legal fees, travel and other miscellaneous         costs relating to acquiring properties.

Quarterly the Investments in Project Partnerships are increased or decreased as follows:

    1)  Increased for equity in income or decreased for equity in losses of the         Project Partnerships,
    2)  Decreased for cash distributions received from the Project Partnerships and,
    3)  Decreased for the amortization of the acquisition fees and expenses.

   Amortization is calculated on a straight-line basis over 35 years, as this is the average estimated useful life of the underlying assets. The net amortization is as amortization expense on the Statements of Operations.

   Pursuant to the limited partnership agreements for the Project Partnerships, cash losses generated by the Project Partnerships are allocated to the general partners of those partnerships. In subsequent years, cash profits, if any, are first allocated to the general partners to the extent of the allocation of prior years' cash losses.

   Since Gateway invests as a limited partner, and therefore is not obligated to fund losses or make additional capital contributions, it does not recognize losses from individual Project Partnerships to the extent that these losses would reduce the investment in those Project Partnerships below zero. The suspended losses will be used to offset future income from the individual Project Partnerships.

   Gateway reviews its investments in Project Partnerships to determine if there has been any permanent impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the investment may not be recoverable. If the sum of the expected future cash flows is less than the carrying amount of the investment, Gateway recognizes an impairment loss. No impairment loss has been recognized in the accompanying financial statements.

   Gateway, as a limited partner in the Project Partnerships, is subject to risks inherent in the ownership of property which are beyond its control, such as fluctuations in occupancy rates and operating expenses, variations in rental schedules, proper maintenance and continued eligibility of tax credits. If the cost of operating a property exceeds the rental income earned thereon, Gateway may deem it in its best interest to voluntarily provide funds in order to protect its investment.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

   It is Gateway's policy to include short-term investments with an original maturity of three months or less in Cash and Cash Equivalents. Short-term investments are comprised of money market mutual funds.

Accounts Receivable

   Accounts receivable consist primarily of amounts due from project partnerships for voluntary operating advances made by the Partnership and tenant receivables. The operating advances are non-interest bearing and are due on demand. Tenant receivables are recorded when billed. An allowance for doubtful accounts has not been considered necessary based on historical loss experience. An account is considered past due when payment has not been rendered within thirty days of its due date. Uncollectible receivables are charged to rental revenue when project management has determined that collection efforts will not be successful.

Capitalization and Depreciation

   Land, buildings and improvements are recorded at cost. Depreciation is calculated using the accelerated method in amounts adequate to amortize costs over the lives of the applicable assets as follows:

     Buildings                 27-1/2 years
     Equipment                      7 years

   Expenditures for maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Upon disposal of depreciable property, the appropriate property accounts are reduced by the related costs and accumulated depreciation. The resulting gains and losses are reflected in the statement of income.

Rental Income

    Rental income, principally from short-term leases on the Combined Entity's apartment units, is recognized as income under the accrual method as the rents become due.

Concentrations of Credit Risk

    Financial instruments which potentially subject Gateway to concentrations of credit risk consist of cash investments in a money market mutual fund that is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Raymond James Financial, Inc.

Use of Estimates in the Preparation of Financial Statements

    The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the use of estimates that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. These estimates are based on management's knowledge and experience. Accordingly, actual results could differ from these estimates.

Investment in Securities

    Effective April 1, 1995, Gateway adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities ("FAS 115"). Under FAS 115, Gateway is required to categorize its debt securities as held-to-maturity, available-for-sale or trading securities, dependent upon Gateway's intent in holding the securities. Gateway's intent is to hold all of its debt securities (U. S. Treasury Security Strips) until maturity and to use these reserves to fund Gateway's ongoing operations. Interest income is recognized ratably on the U.S. Treasury Strips using the effective yield to maturity.

Income Taxes

    No provision for income taxes has been made in these financial statements, as income taxes are a liability of the partners rather than of Gateway.

Reclassifications

    For comparability, the 2001 and 2002 figures have been reclassified, where appropriate, to conform with the financial statement presentation used in 2003.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

   In August 2001, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS No. 144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets". SFAS No. 144 provides accounting guidance for financial accounting and reporting for the impairment or disposal of long-lived assets. SFAS No. 144 supersedes SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and for Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed Of". SFAS No. 144 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Partnership adopted SFAS No. 144 effective January 1, 2002. The adoption did not have an effect on the financial position or results of operations of the Partnership.

   In January 2003, the FASB issued FASB Interpretation No. 46 ("FIN46"), "Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities, an Interpretation of ARB No. 51." FIN46 requires certain variable interest entities to be consolidated by the primary beneficiary of the entity if the equity investors in the entity to not have the characteristics of a controlling financial interest or do not have sufficient equity at risk for the entity to finance its activities without additional subordindated financial support from other parties. FIN46 is effective for all new variable interest entitites created or acquired after January 31, 2003. For variable interest entities created or acquired prior to February 1, 2003, the provisions of FIN46 must be applied for the first interim or annual period beginning after June 15, 2003. The Partnership is currently evaluating the effect, if any, that the adoption of FIN46 will have on its results of operations and financial condition.

NOTE 3 - INVESTMENT IN SECURITIES:

    The March 31, 2003 Balance Sheet includes Investments in Securities equal to $616,048 ($487,057 and $128,991). These investments consist of U. S. Treasury Security Strips at their cost, plus accreted interest income of $382,920. The estimated market value at March 31, 2003 of these debt securities is $649,229 resulting in a gross unrealized gain of $33,181.

   As of March 31, 2003, the cost and accreted interest by contractual maturities
is as follows:

     Due within 1 year                             $ 487,057
     After 1 year through 5 years                    128,991
                                                  ----------
     Total Amount Carried on Balance Sheet          $616,048
                                                  ==========
NOTE 4 - RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS:

   The Payable to General Partners primarily represents the asset management fees owed to the General Partners at the end of the period. It is unsecured, due on demand and, in accordance with the limited partnership agreement, non-interest bearing. Within the next 12 months, the Managing General Partner does not intend to demand payment on the portion of Asset Management Fees payable classified as long-term on the Balance Sheet.

   The General Partners and affiliates are entitled to compensation and reimbursement for costs and expenses as follows:

   Asset Management Fee - The Managing General Partner is entitled to an annual asset management fee equal to 0.45% of the aggregate cost of Gateway's interest in the projects owned by the Project Partnerships. The asset management fee will be paid only after all other expenses of Gateway have been paid. These fees are included in the Statements of Operations. Totals incurred for the years ended March 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001 were $491,021, $493,205 and $494,898 respectively.

   General and Administrative Expenses - Raymond James Tax Credit Funds, Inc., the Managing General Partner, is reimbursed for general and administrative expenses of Gateway on an accountable basis. These expenses are included in the Statements of Operations. Totals incurred for the years ended March 31, 2003, 2002 and 2001 were $68,891, $45,714 and $36,934 respectively.

Crestwood Villa 2 Limited Partnership                                      Servicing Office
DBA Applewood Apartments                                                   Findlay, Ohio
Mansfield, Ohio

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Crestwood Villa 2 Limited Partnership (a limited partnership), DBA Applewood Apartments, Case No. 41-017-341612174, as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the related statements of income, changes in partners' equity (deficit) and cash flows for the years then ended. These financial statements are the responsibility of the Partnership's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards issued by the Comptroller General of the United States, and the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Farmers Home Administration "Audit Program" issued in December 1989. Those standards require that we plan and perform our audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Crestwood Villa 2 Limited Partnership, DBA Applewood Apartments, Case No. 41-017-341612174, at December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the results of its operations and cash flows for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

In accordance with Government Auditing Standards and the U.S. Department of Agriculture, Farmers Home Administration "Audit Program," issued in December 1989, we have also issued a report dated January 17, 2003, on our consideration of Crestwood Villa 2 Limited Partnership's internal control and on compliance with specific requirements applicable to Rural Housing Service Programs. Those reports are an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards and should be read in conjunction with this report in considering the results of our audit.
