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"). 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, 1997
were from the maturity of Treasury Notes for $357,000, interest
income of $14,371 earned on cash and cash equivalents, and $87,273
in distributions received from Project Partnerships. As of March
31, 1997 Gateway had $445,969 of Cash and Cash Equivalents and
$2,349,025 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
Rural Housing Services) ("RHS") 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 RECD 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, 1997 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 11.5% of Gateway's total assets. The following table
provides certain summary information regarding the Projects in
which Gateway had an interest, excluding Sparta, as of December 31,
1996:

PART II
Item 5. Market for the Registrant's Securities and Related
Security Holder Matters
(a) Gateway's Limited Partnership interests are not publicly
traded. There is no market for the Registrant's Limited
Partnership interests and it is unlikely that any will
develop. No transfers of Limited Partnership Units are
permitted without the prior written consent of the
Managing General Partner. There have been several
transfers over the last two years, with most being from
individuals to their trusts or heirs. The Managing
General Partner is not aware of the price at which the
units are transferred. The conditions under which
investors may transfer units is found under ARTICLE XII -
"Transfer of a Limited Partnership Interest" on pages A-
24 and A-25 of the Limited Partnership Agreement within
the Prospectus, which is incorporated herein by
reference.
There have been no distributions paid to the Limited Partner
investors over the last five years.

Item 7. 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, 1997, 1996 and 1995.
Total expenses were comparable for the years ended March 31, 1996
and 1995. Total expense for the year ended March 31, 1997
increased to $651,606 as compared to $599,363 for the year ended
March 31, 1996 primarily as a result of combining the operating
expenses of Sparta.
Equity in Losses of Project Partnerships for the year ended March
31, 1996 decreased from $2,088,642 for the year ended March 31,
1995 to $1,135,565 as a result of not including losses of $660,883,
as these losses would reduce the investment in certain Project
Partnerships below zero. The Equity in Losses of Project
Partnerships increased to $1,365,627 for the year ended March 31,
1997 as Gateway recognized prior suspended losses relating to the
Combined Entity. 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, 1996,
December 31, 1995, and December 31, 1994, the 81 Project
Partnerships reported depreciation and amortization expense of
$3,685,935, $3,316,673, and $4,137,837, 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.
1) On October 1, 1996 Value Partners, Inc. became the sole
general partner of Village Apartments of Sparta Limited
Partnership, replacing the former local general partners. Value
Partners, Inc. is an affiliate of Raymond James Tax Credit Funds,
Inc., the managing General Partner of Gateway. Sparta is a 24 unit
property located in Sparta, Illinois in which Gateway invested as
the sole limited partner on August 1, 1989. High vacancy rates due
to the closure of a major area employer and excessive real estate
taxes caused Sparta to experience operating cash shortages and
deferred maintenance. Effective October 1, 1996, a problems
resolution plan was executed between the mortgage lender (RHS) and
Sparta. Under the terms of the plan, a new property management
company was hired, Gateway agreed to loan Sparta approximately
$35,000 to pay delinquent real estate taxes and to complete various
maintenance requirements and RHS reduced the loan payments for a 24
month period beginning October 1996. Based on current occupancy,
the property is projected to require additional loans from Gateway
of approximately $10,000 per year until additional rental
assistance becomes available.
2) A property located in Killen, Alabama experienced significant
cash flow shortages due to a recent occupancy problem created by
competition from a new 80 unit complex located nearby. The
management company and local general partners are working
diligently to improve occupancy. As of March 1997, occupancy was
90%.
There were no cash distributions paid in the fiscal years ended
March 31, 1995, 1996, and 1997 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, 1997, Gateway had $445,969 of short
term investments (Cash and Cash Equivalents). It also had
$2,349,025 in Zero Coupon Treasuries with maturities providing
$375,000 in fiscal year 1998 increasing to $514,000 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, 1997, Gateway received $87,273 in
cash distributions from the Project Partnerships and it received
$357,000 from the matured Zero Coupon Treasuries. The General and
Administrative operating costs were $80,923 and the Asset
Management Fee actually paid was $306,217.
Item 8. 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, 1997 and 1996 and the related combined statements of
operations, partners' equity, and cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended March 31, 1997. 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 underlying Project Partnerships
owned by Gateway Tax Credit Fund, Ltd. for each of the three years
in the period ended March 31, 1997, the investments in which are
recorded using the equity method of accounting. The investments in
these partnerships represent 92% and 91% of the total investment in
Project Partnerships and 52% and 61% of the Partnership's assets as
of March 31, 1997 and 1996, and the equity in their losses
represents 88%, 73% and 85% of the equity in losses of the Project
Partnerships for the years ended March 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995.
Those statements were audited by other auditors whose reports have
been furnished 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 generally accepted
auditing standards. 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, 1997 and 1996 and the
results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three
years in the period ended March 31, 1997, in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.
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, 1997, 1996 AND 1995
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 and Village Apartments of Sparta Limited
Partnership ("Combined Entity"), a Project Partnership in which
Gateway has invested. As of October 1, 1996, an affiliate of
Gateway's Managing General Partner, Value Partners, Inc. became the
general partner of the Combined Entity. Since the general partner
of the Combined Entity is now an affiliate of Gateway, these
combined financial statements include the financial activity of the
Combined Entity for the period from October 1, 1996 through
December 31, 1996. All significant intercompany balances and
transactions have been eliminated. Gateway has elected to report
the results of operations of the Combined Entity 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 Entity, using the equity method
of accounting 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,
3) Decreased for the amortization of the acquisition fees and
expenses,
4) In certain Project Partnerships, where Gateway's investment
was greater than Gateway's pro-rata share of the book value of
the underlying assets, decreased for the amortization of the
difference; and
5) In certain Project Partnerships, where Gateway's investment
was less than Gateway's pro-rata share of the book value of the
underlying assets, increased for the accretion of the
difference.
Amortization and accretion are calculated on a straight-line
basis over 35 years, as this is the average estimated useful life
of the underlying assets. The net amortization and accretion are
shown 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.
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.
Capitalization and Depreciation
Land, buildings and improvements are recorded at cost and
provides for depreciation using the modified accelerated cost
recovery system method for financial and tax reporting purposes 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
generally accepted accounting principles 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.
Offering and Commission Costs
Offering and commission costs were charged against Limited
Partners' Equity upon the admission of Limited Partners.
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 1996 and 1995 figures have been
reclassified, where appropriate, to conform with the financial
statement presentation used in 1997.
NOTE 3 - INVESTMENT IN SECURITIES:
The March 31, 1997 Balance Sheet includes Investments in
Securities equal to $2,349,025 ($353,436 and $1,995,589). These
investments consist of U. S. Treasury Security Strips at their
cost, plus accreted interest income of $933,575. The estimated
market value at March 31, 1997 of these debt securities is
$2,488,791 resulting in a gross unrealized gain of $139,766.
As of March 31, 1997, the cost and accreted interest by
contractual maturities is as follows:
Due within 1 year $ 353,436
After 1 year through 5 years 1,317,113
After 5 years through 10 years 678,476
----------
Total Amount Carried on Balance Sheet $2,349,025
==========
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, 1997, 1996 and 1995 were $502,017, $502,333 and
$503,482, 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, 1997,
1996 and 1995 were $25,316, $25,447 and $31,168, respectively.

NOTE 6 - MORTGAGE NOTE PAYABLE
The mortgage note payable is the balance due on the note dated
May 10, 1989 in the amount of $829,545. The loan is at a stated
interest rate of 9.5% for a period of 50 years, the loan also
contains a provision for an interest subsidy which reduces the
effective interest rate to 2.4%. At December 31, 1996 the
development was in financial trouble and RHS ("Rural Housing
Services") had adjusted loan payments to $700 per month for 24
months beginning October 1, 1996 through September 30, 1998. These
payments are expected to pay the interest due during this period
and no reduction to principal will occur. If the development is in
compliance with the terms of the subsidy agreement the monthly
payments are expected to be $1,760 beginning October 1, 1998.
Expected maturities of the mortgage note payable are as follows:
Year Ending Amount

The Partnership's Investment in Project Partnerships is
approximately $6,300,000 higher for financial reporting purposes
than for tax return purposes because (i) annual tax depreciation
expense is higher than financial depreciation, (ii) certain
expenses are not deductible for tax return purposes and (iii)
losses are suspended for financial purposes but not for tax return
purposes.
NOTE 8 - INVESTMENTS IN PROJECT PARTNERSHIPS:
As of March 31, 1997, the Partnership owned a 99% limited partner
ownership interest in 81 Project Partnerships, excluding the
Combined Entity at March 31, 1997, which own and operate

Expenses, Changes in Partners' Equity (Deficit), and Cash Flows of
Fairview South, Ltd. as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and for the
years then ended. These financial statements are the
responsibility of Fairview South, Ltd.'s management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted
auditing Standards, Government Auditing Standards issued by the
Comptroller General of the United States, and the 'U.S. Department
of Agriculture, Farmers Home Administration - Audit Program.'
Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit 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
Fairview South, Ltd. as of December 31, 1996 and 1995, and the
results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then
ended in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.
Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on
the financial statements taken as a whole. The schedules and
supplemental letter listed in the table of contents are presented
for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part of
the financial statements of Fairview South, Ltd. Such information
has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit
of the financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly
presented in all material respects in relation to the financial
taken as a whole.
In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also
issued a report dated January 31, 1997 on our consideration of
Fairview South, Ltd.'s internal control structure and a report
dated January 31, 1997 on its compliance with laws and regulations.
