PART I.
Item 1. Business
Organization
WNC California Tax Housing Credits, L.P. ("CHTC" or the "Partnership") is a
California Limited Partnership formed under the laws of the State of California
on September 15, 1988. The Partnership was formed to acquire limited partnership
interests in local limited partnerships ("Local Limited Partnerships") which own
multifamily apartment complexes that are eligible for low-income housing federal
and California income tax credits ("Low Income Housing Credits").
The general partners of the Partnership are WNC & Associates, Inc.
("Associates") and Wilfred N. Cooper, Sr. (collectively, the "General
Partners"). Wilfred N. Cooper, Sr. through the Cooper Revocable Trust, owns just
less than 70% of the outstanding stock of Associates. John B. Lester, Jr. is the
original limited partner of the Partnership and owns, through the Lester Family
Trust, just less than 30% of the outstanding stock of Associates. The business
of the Partnership is conducted primarily through Associates as the Partnership
has no employees of its own.
On March 16, 1989, the Partnership commenced a public offering of 10,000 Units
of Limited Partnership Interests ("Units"), at a price of $1,000 per Units. As
of the close of the public offering, October 31, 1990, a total of 7,450 Units
representing $7,450,000 had been sold. Holders of Units are referred herein as
"Limited Partners".
Description of Business
The Partnership's principal business objective is to provide its Limited
Partners with Low Income Housing Credits. The Partnership's principal business
therefore consists of investing as a limited partner in Local Limited
Partnerships each of which will own and operate an apartment complex ("Apartment
Complex") which will qualify for the Low Income Housing Credit. In general,
under Section 42 of the Internal Revenue Code, an owner of low-income housing
can receive the Low Income Housing Credit to be used against Federal taxes
otherwise due in each year of a ten-year period. In general, under Section 17058
of the California Revenue and Taxation Code, an owner of low-income housing can
receive the Low Income Housing Credit to be used against California taxes
otherwise due in each year of a four-year period. The Apartment Complex is
subject to a fifteen-year compliance period (the "Compliance Period").
1
In general, in order to avoid recapture of Low Income Housing Credits, the
Partnership does not expect that it will dispose of its interests in Local
Limited Partnerships ("Local Limited Partnerships Interests") or approve the
sale by a Local Limited Partnership of any Apartment Complex prior to the end of
the applicable Compliance Period. Because of (i) the nature of the Apartment
Complexes, (ii) the difficulty of predicting the resale market for low-income
housing 15 or more year in the future, and (iii) the inability of the
Partnership to directly cause the sale of Apartment Complexes by the general
partners of the respective Local Limited Partnerships ("Local General
Partners"), but generally only to require such Local General Partners to use
their respective best efforts to find a purchaser for the Apartment Complexes
(and then subject to the ability of government lenders to disapprove of
transfers), it is not possible at this time to predict whether the liquidation
of substantially all of the Partnership's assets and the disposition of the
proceeds, if any, in accordance with the Partnership Agreement will be able to
be accomplished promptly at the end of the Compliance Period. If a Local Limited
Partnership is unable to sell an Apartment Complex, it is anticipated that the
Local General Partner will either continue to operate such Apartment Complex or
take such other actions as the Local General Partner believes to be in the best
interest of the Local Limited Partnership. In addition, circumstances beyond the
control of the General Partners may occur during the Compliance Period which
would require the Partnership to approve the disposition of an Apartment Complex
prior to the end thereof.
As of December 31, 1998, CHTC has invested in 11 Local Limited Partnerships.
Each of these Local Limited Partnerships owns an Apartment Complex that is
eligible for the federal Low Income Housing Tax Credit. Eight of the Apartment
Complexes are eligible for the California Low Income Housing Credit. All of the
Local Limited Partnerships also benefit from government programs promoting low
or moderate-income housing.
2
The Partnership's investments in Local Limited Partnerships are subject to the
risks incident to the management and ownership of multifamily residential real
estate. Some of these risks are that the Housing Tax Credit could be recaptured
and neither the Partnership's investments nor the Apartment Complexes owned by
Local Limited Partnerships will be readily marketable. Additionally there can be
no assurance that the Partnership will be able to dispose of its interest in
Local Limited Partnerships at the end of the Compliance Period. 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
Apartment Complexes and the Partnership. The Apartment Complexes could be
subject to loss through foreclosure. In addition, each Local Limited Partnership
is subject to risks relating to environmental hazards which might be
uninsurable. Because the Partnership's ability to control its operations will
depend on these and other factors beyond the control of the General Partners and
the general partners of the Local Limited Partnerships, there can be no
assurance that Partnership operations will be profitable or that the anticipated
Low Income Housing Credits will be available to Limited Partners.
As of December 31, 1998, all of the Apartment Complexes were completed and in
operation. The Apartment Complexes owned by the Local Limited Partnerships in
which CHTC has invested were developed by the Local General Partners who
acquired the sites and applied for applicable mortgages and subsidies. CHTC
became the principal limited partner in these Local Limited Partnerships
pursuant to arm's-length negotiations with the general partners of the
respective Local Limited Partnerships ("Local General Partners"). As a limited
partner, CHTC's liability for obligations of the Local Limited Partnership is
limited to its investment. The Local General Partner of the Local Limited
Partnership retains responsibility for developing, constructing, maintaining,
operating and managing the Apartment Complex.

Item 5a.
(a) The Units are not traded on a public exchange but were sold through a public
offering. It is not anticipated that any public market will develop for the
purchase and sale of any Unit. Units can be assigned only if certain
requirements in CHTC's Agreement of Limited Partnership ("Partnership
Agreement") are satisfied. (b) At December 31, 1998, there were 685 Limited
Partners. (c) The Partnership was not designed to provide cash distributions to
Limited Partners in circumstances other than refinancing or disposition of its
investments in Local Limited Partnerships. The Limited Partners received $99
federal Low Income Housing Credits per Unit for each year of 1998 and 1997.
State Low Income Housing Credits in the aggregate amount of $473 to $700 per
Limited Partnership Interest were generated from 1989 through 1994.

Item 6. Selected Financial Data
OMITTED
Note to Reader. Some of the limited partnerships in which the
Partnership has investments have yet to provide final audited financial
statements and other information as required under the terms of the
respective partnership agreements. That information is critical to the
completion of the Partnership's required disclosures in this Annual
Report on Form 10K, including information on the underlying property
investments, the Partnership's financial statements and required
supplementary schedules. Every effort is being made to obtain this
information and the registrant will file an amended Form 10K as quickly
as possible.
Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results
of Operation
OMITTED
See the Note to Reader in Part II, Item 6.
Impact of Year 2000
Associates has assessed the Partnership's exposure to date sensitive computer
systems that may not be operative subsequent to 1999. As a result of this
assessment, Associates has executed a plan to minimize the Partnership's
exposure to financial loss and/or disruption of normal business operations that
may occur as a result of Year 2000 non-compliant computer systems.
Business Computer Systems
These systems include both computer hardware and software applications relating
to operations such as financial reporting. The Partnership does not maintain its
own systems and thus utilizes the computer systems of the General Partner.
Associates developed a compliance plan for each of its business computer
systems, with particular attention given to critical systems. Associates
contracted with an outside vendor to evaluate, test and repair such systems. The
assessment consisted of determining the compliance with Year 2000 of critical
computer hardware and software. Incidences of non-compliance were found with
respect to computer software applications and were corrected. The vendor found
no instances of non-compliance with respect to computer hardware.
6
The Local General Partners and/or property management companies maintain the
business computer systems that relate to the operations of the Local Limited
Partnerships. Associates is in the process of obtaining completed questionnaires
from such Local General Partners and property management companies to assess
their respective Year 2000 readiness. Associates intends to identify those Local
General Partners and property management companies that have systems critical to
the operations of the Local Limited Partnerships that are not Year 2000
compliant. For those Local General Partners and property management companies
which have business computer systems which will not be Year 2000 compliant prior
to December 31, 1999 and where the lack of such compliance is determined to have
a potential material effect on the Partnership's financial condition and results
of operations, Associates intends to develop contingency plans which may include
changing property management companies.
Outside Vendors
Associates has obtained assurances from its suppliers of electrical power and
banking and telecommunication services that their critical systems are all Year
2000 compliant. There exists, however, inherent uncertainty that all systems of
outside vendors or other third parties on which the General Partners, and thus
the Partnership, and the Local General Partners and property management
companies, and thus the Local Limited Partnerships, rely will be Year 2000
compliant. Therefore, the Partnership remains susceptible to the consequences of
third party critical computer systems being non-compliant.
Personal Computers
Associates has determined that its personal computers and related software
critical to the operations of the Partnership are Year 2000 compliant.

(iii) The decision to change accountants was approved by the
board of directors of the General Partner.

procedure of the nature described in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Securities
and Exchange Commission Regulation S-K.
(v) During the last two fiscal years and subsequent interim
period of the Partnership there were no reportable events of the

was engaged as the Partnership's principal independent accountant.
During the last two fiscal years and subsequent interim period of the
Partnership, the Partnership did not consult BDO Seidman, LLP
regarding (i) either, the application of accounting principles to a
specified transaction; or the type of audit opinion that might be
rendered on the Partnership's financial statements, or (ii) any matter
that was the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Item
304(a)(1)(iv) of Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-K) or
was a reportable event (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Securities
and Exchange Commission Regulation S-K).
