PART I

Item 1. Business

Gateway Tax Credit Fund II 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
sponsors of Gateway Tax Credit Fund II Ltd. and wholly-owned subsidiaries
of Raymond James Financial, Inc.

Pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, Gateway filed a Form S-11
Registration Statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission,
effective September 12, 1989, which covered the offering (the "Public
Offering") of Gateway's Beneficial Assignee Certificates ("BACs")
representing assignments of units for the beneficial interest of the
limited partnership interest of the Assignor Limited Partner. The Assignor
Limited Partner was formed for the purpose of serving in that capacity for
the Fund and will not engage in any other business.

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. As of
March 31, 1998, Gateway had received capital contributions of $1,000 from
the General Partners and $37,228,000 from Assignees.

Gateway offered BACs in five series. BACs in the amounts of $6,136,000,
$5,456,000, $6,915,000, $8,616,000 and $10,105,000 for Series 2, 3, 4, 5,
and 6, respectively had been issued as of March 31, 1998. Each series is
treated as a separate partnership, investing in a separate and distinct
pool of Project Partnerships. Net proceeds from each series were used to
acquire Project Partnerships which are specifically allocated to such
series. Income or loss and all tax items from the Project Partnerships
acquired by each series are specifically allocated among the Assignees of
such series.

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

As of March 31, 1998, Gateway had invested in 22 Project Partnerships for
Series 2, 23 Project Partnerships for Series 3, 29 Project Partnerships for
Series 4, 36 Project Partnerships for Series 5 and 38 Project Partnerships
for Series 6. Gateway acquired its interests in these properties by
becoming a limited partner in the Project Partnerships that own the
properties. As of March 31, 1998 each series was fully invested in Project
Partnerships and management plans no new investments in the future.

The primary source of funds from the inception of each series has been
the capital contributions from Assignees. Gateway's operating costs are
funded using the reserves, established for this purpose, the interest
earned on these reserves and distributions received from Project
Partnerships.

All but two of the Project Partnerships are government subsidized with
mortgage loans from the Farmers Home Administration (now called Rural
Economic and Community Development) ("RECD") 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 23 through 34 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 Assignees 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 contribution of Investors;

3) Participate in any capital appreciation in the value of the
Projects; and

4) Provide passive losses to i) individual investors to offset
passive income from other passive activities, and ii) corporate
investors to offset business income.

The investment objectives and policies of Gateway are described in detail
on pages 34 through 40 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, 1998 the investor capital
contributions 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. Services are performed by the Managing
General Partner and its affiliates and by agents retained by it. The
Managing General Partner has full and exclusive discretion in management
and control of Gateway.

Item 2. Properties

Gateway owns a majority interest in properties through its limited
partnership investments in Project Partnerships. The largest single
investment in a Project Partnership in Series 2 is 12.9% of the Series'
total assets, Series 3 is 11.3%, Series 4 is 6.9%, Series 5 is 11.7% and
Series 6 is 11.6%. The following table provides certain summary
information regarding the Project Partnerships in which Gateway had an
interest as of December 31, 1997:

Inverness Club Ltd.'s fixed asset total is 12.3% of the Series 2 total
Project Partnership fixed assets. Inverness Club was placed in service in
October 1991, is located on Florida's West Coast and operates as a
low-income 72 unit apartment facility for the elderly. It also offers an
optional congregate services package to all tenants. The property competes
for tenants with six other apartment properties in the area. The market
study estimated a demand for 100 elderly units.

Inverness Club's occupancy rate was 90% and its average effective annual
rental per unit was $4,506 ($375 per month) on December 31, 1997. The land

in this report.

Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations

Results of Operations, Liquidity and Capital Resources

Operations commenced on September 14, 1990, with the first admission of
Assignees in Series 2. The proceeds from Assignees' capital contributions
available for investment were used to acquire interests in Project
Partnerships.

As disclosed on the statement of operations for each Series, except as
described below, interest income is comparable for the years ended March
31, 1998, March 31, 1997 and March 31, 1996. The General and
Administrative expenses - General Partner and General and Administrative
expenses - Other for the year ended March 31, 1998 are comparable to March
31, 1997 and March 31, 1996.

The capital resources of each Series 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 unpaid at the time Gateway sells its interests in the
Project Partnerships is subordinated to the return of the investors'
original capital contributions).

The sources of funds to pay the operating costs of each Series 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 the Series from the
operations of the Project Partnerships.

From inception, no Series has paid distributions and management does not
anticipate distributions in the future.

Series 2 - Gateway closed this series on September 14, 1990 after
receiving $6,136,000 from 375 Assignees. As of March 31, 1998, the series
had invested $4,524,678 in 22 Project Partnerships located in 10 states
containing 723 apartment units. Average occupancy of the Project
Partnerships was 96% at December 31, 1997.

Equity in Losses of Project Partnerships decreased from $527,175 for the
year ended March 31, 1997 to $288,412 for the year ended March 31, 1998.
This decrease was due to additional suspended losses of $420,416 as these
losses would reduce the investment in certain Project Partnerships below
zero. Equity in Losses of Project Partnerships of $527,175 for the year
ended March 31, 1997 were comparable to the year ended March 31, 1996. 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. (These Project Partnerships reported
depreciation and amortization of $959,697, $939,525 and $935,616 for the
years ended December 31, 1995, 1996, and 1997 respectively.) As a result,
management expects that this Series, as well as those described below, will
report its equity in Project Partnerships as a loss for tax and financial
reporting purposes. Overall, management believes the Project Partnerships
are operating as expected and are generating tax credits which meet
projections.

At March 31, 1998, the Series had $160,851 of short-term investments (Cash
and Cash Equivalents). It also had $373,913 in Zero Coupon Treasuries with
annual maturities providing $47,508 in fiscal year 1999 increasing to
$66,285 in fiscal year 2007. Management believes the sources of funds are
sufficient to meet current and ongoing operating costs for the foreseeable
future, and to pay part of the Asset Management Fee.

As disclosed on the statement of cash flows, the Series had a net loss of
$337,693 for the year ending March 31, 1998. However, after adjusting for
Equity in Losses of Project Partnerships of $288,412 and the changes in
operating assets and liabilities, net cash used in operating activities was
$26,268, of which $33,989 was the Asset Management Fee actually paid. Cash
provided by investing activities totaled $48,588, consisting of $16,493 in
cash distributions from the Project Partnerships and $32,065 from matured
Zero Coupon Treasuries. There were no unusual events or trends to describe.

Series 3 - Gateway closed this series on December 13, 1990 after receiving
$5,456,000 from 398 Assignees. As of March 31, 1998 the series had
invested $3,888,713 in 23 Project Partnerships located in 12 states
containing 768 apartment units. Average occupancy of the Project
Partnerships was 95% as of December 31, 1997.

Equity in Losses of Project Partnerships decreased from $421,996 for the
year ended March 31, 1996 to $285,853 for the year ended March 31, 1997 and
to $198,168 for the year ended March 31, 1998. These decreases were due to
suspended losses of $190,864, $343,378 and 463,688 for the years ended
March 31, 1996, 1997, and 1998 respectively. These losses would reduce the
investment in certain Project Partnerships below zero. (These Project
Partnerships reported depreciation and amortization of $940,084, $925,984
and $923,055 for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1996 and 1997,
respectively.) Overall, management believes these Project Partnerships
are operating as expected and are generating tax credits which meet
projections.

At March 31, 1998, the Series had $135,622 of short-term investments (Cash
and Cash Equivalents). It also had $332,588 in Zero Coupon Treasuries with
annual maturities providing $42,244 in fiscal year 1999 increasing to
$58,940 in fiscal year 2007. Management believes these sources of funds
are sufficient to meet the Series' current and ongoing operating costs for
the foreseeable future, and to pay part of the Asset Management Fee.

As disclosed on the statement of cash flows, the Series had a net loss of
$221,508 for the year ended March 31, 1998. However, after adjusting for
Equity in Losses of Project Partnerships of $198,168 and the changes in
operating assets and liabilities, net cash used in operating activities was
$40,389, of which $41,807 was the Asset Management Fee actually paid. Cash
provided by investing activities totaled $66,086, consisting of $37,565,
adjusted by $34,966 included in Other Income, in cash distributions
received from the Project Partnerships and $28,521 from matured Zero Coupon
Treasuries. There were no unusual events or trends to describe.

Series 4 - Gateway closed this series on May 31, 1991 after receiving
$6,915,000 from 465 Assignees. As of March 31, 1998, the series had
invested $4,952,519 in 29 Project Partnerships located in 16 states
containing 879 apartment units. Average occupancy of the Project
Partnerships was 97% at December 31, 1997.

Equity in Losses of Project Partnerships decreased from $644,865 for the
year ended March 31, 1996 to $635,178 for the year ended March 31, 1997 and
to $421,886 for the year ended March 31, 1998. (These Project Partnerships
reported depreciation and amortization of $1,047,484, $1,043,887 and
$1,060,855 for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1996 and 1997,
respectively.) Overall, management believes these Project Partnerships
are operating as expected and are generating tax credits which meet
projections.

At March 31, 1998, the Series had $196,876 of short-term investments (Cash
and Cash Equivalents). It also had $421,355 in Zero Coupon Treasuries with
annual maturities providing $53,539 in fiscal year 1999 increasing to
$74,700 in fiscal year 2007. Management believes these sources of funds
are sufficient to meet the Series' current and ongoing operating costs for
the foreseeable future, and to pay part of the Asset Management Fee.

As disclosed on the statement of cash flows, the Series had a net loss of
$485,415 for the year ended March 31, 1998. However, after adjusting for
Equity in Losses of Project Partnerships of $421,886 and the changes in
operating assets and liabilities, net cash used in operating activities was
$40,429, of which $44,276 was the Asset Management Fee actually paid. Cash
provided by investing activities totaled $54,532, consisting of $18,400 in
cash distributions from the Project Partnerships and $36,132 from matured
Zero Coupon Treasuries. There were no unusual events or trends to
describe.

A Project Partnership located in Howard, S.D. experienced significant
cash shortages from operations in 1997 due to low occupancy as a result of
layoffs at a local major employer. The local general partner partially
funded the deficit by lending $16,100 in 1997 and $6,030 to date in 1998.
Occupancy improved to 75% at June 30, 1998. Management does not expect any
materially adverse effect to Gateway from this Project Partnership.

Series 5 - Gateway closed this series on October 11, 1991 after receiving
$8,616,000 from 535 Assignees. As of March 31, 1998, the series had
invested $6,164,472 in 36 Project Partnerships located in 13 states
containing 1,106 apartment units. Average occupancy of the Project
Partnerships was 96% as of December 31, 1997.

Equity in Losses of Project Partnerships increased from $700,127 for the
year ended March 31, 1996 to $911,965 for the year ended March 31, 1997 and
decreased to $728,729 for the year ended March 31, 1998. (These Project
Partnerships reported depreciation and amortization of $1,219,766,
$1,380,487 and $1,331,686 for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1996 and
1997, respectively.) Overall, management believes these Project
Partnerships are operating as expected and are generating tax credits which
meet projections.

At March 31, 1998, the Series had $280,813 of short-term investments (Cash
and Cash Equivalents). It also had $525,165 in Zero Coupon Treasuries with
annual maturities providing $66,709 in fiscal year 1999 increasing to
$93,075 in fiscal year 2007. Management believes these sources of funds
are sufficient to meet the Series' current and ongoing operating costs for
the foreseeable future, and to pay part of the Asset Management Fee.

As disclosed on the statement of cash flows, the Series had a net loss of
$813,502 for the year ended March 31, 1998. However, after adjusting for
Equity in Losses of Project Partnerships of $728,729 and the changes in
operating assets and liabilities, net cash used in operating activities was
$53,416, of which $59,826 was the Asset Management Fee actually paid. Cash
provided by investing activities totaled $75,223 consisting of $30,188 in
cash distributions from the Project Partnerships and $45,035 from matured
Zero Coupon Treasuries. There were no unusual events or trends to
describe.

Series 6 - Gateway closed this series on March 11, 1992 after receiving
$10,105,000 from 625 Assignees. As of March 31, 1998, the series had
invested $7,462,215 in 38 Project Partnerships located in 19 states
containing 1,086 apartment units. Average occupancy of the Project
Partnerships was 97% as of December 31, 1997.

Equity in Losses of Project Partnerships increased from $710,986 for the
year ended March 31, 1996 to $805,310 for the year ended March 31, 1997 and
decreased to $761,923 for the year ended March 31, 1998. (These Project
Partnerships reported depreciation and amortization of $1,437,632,
$1,477,003 and $1,474,599 for the years ended December 31, 1995, 1996 and
1997, respectively.) Overall, management believes these Project
Partnerships are operating as expected and are generating tax credits which
meet projections.

At March 31, 1998, the Series had $406,255 of short-term investments (Cash
and Cash Equivalents). It also had $421,617 in Zero Coupon Treasuries with
annual maturities providing $51,000 in fiscal year 1999 increasing to
$83,000 in fiscal year 2007. Management believes these sources of funds
are sufficient to meet the Series' current and ongoing operating costs for
the foreseeable future, and to pay part of the Asset Management Fee.

As disclosed on the statement of cash flows, the Series had a net loss of
$870,137 for the year ended March 31, 1998. However, after adjusting for
Equity in Losses of Project Partnerships of $761,923 and the changes in
operating assets and liabilities, net cash used in operating activities was
$56,078, of which $58,983 was the Asset Management Fee actually paid. Cash
provided by investing activities totaled $65,597 of which $29,859 was
received in cash distributions from the Project Partnerships and $35,738
from matured Zero Coupon Treasuries. There were no unusual events or
trends to describe.

A Project Partnership located in Corbin, KY experienced cash shortages
from operations in 1997 due to low occupancy as a result of competition
from other newly constructed multi-family housing properties. The deficit
was funded with existing working capital earned in prior years. The
management company believes occupancy will improve as the town is thriving.
We expect the property to experience cash flow difficulties until occupancy
improves. Management does not expect any materially adverse effect to
Gateway from this Project Partnership.

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 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
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 financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of each of the five Series (Series 2
through 6) constituting Gateway Tax Credit Fund II Ltd. as of March 31,
1998 and 1997, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for
each of the three years in the period ended March 31, 1998, 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.
