	Welcome to the USDA Management Interactive Network Connection (MINC) system. MINC is an interactive system that collects project budget and tenant residency status information from trusted partners. MINC also allows these trusted partners the ability to schedule electronic funds transfers for their project payments and view detailed information about their tenants residency.
	Monthly MINC tenant transmissions are due by the 10th of each month at 11:59 PM CST. Management Companies in the Mountain, Pacific and Hawaii-Aleutian time zones should adjust their transmission deadlines accordingly.




	Management Agents
	Users that perform account maintenance tasks such as create a new user and assign projects to a user. The agent can also view all the transactions that their MA Users submit.



	MA Users
	Users that submit files with tenant transactions and budgets, schedule electronic funds transfers and review all the transactions that they submit.
