PART I.

Item 1. Business

Organization

WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund V, L.P., Series 3 ("the Partnership" or "Series 3")
is a California Limited Partnership formed under the laws of the State of
California on March 28, 1995, and commenced operations on October 24, 1995 to
acquire limited partnership interests in limited partnerships ("Local Limited
Partnerships") which own multifamily apartment complexes that are eligible for
low-income housing federal income tax credits (the "Low Income Housing Credit").

As of the close of the public offering, January 21, 1996 a total of 18,000
Limited Partnership Interests representing $17,565,135 had been sold.

The general partner of the Partnership is WNC & Associates, Inc. (the "General
Partner" or "Associates"). The business of the Partnership is conducted
primarily through the General Partner as Series 3 has no employees of its own.

Description of Business

The Partnership's principal business 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 federal Low Income Housing Credit. In general, under Section 42,
an owner of a low-income housing project is entitled to receive the Low Income
Housing Credit in each year of a ten-year period (the "Credit Period"). The
Apartment Complex is subject to a 15-year compliance period (the "Compliance
Period").

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 Partnership 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 years 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,
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's Agreement of Limited
Partnership ("Partnership Agreement") will be able to be accomplished promptly
at the end of the 15-year 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 Partner may occur during the Compliance Period which would require the
Partnership to approve the disposition of an Apartment Complex prior to the end
thereof.

1


As of December 31, 1998, the Partnership had invested in 18 Local Limited
Partnerships. Each of these Local Limited Partnerships owns an Apartment Complex
that is or is expected to be eligible for the Low Income Housing Credit. All of
the Local Limited Partnerships also benefit from government programs promoting
low- or moderate-income housing.

The Partnership's investments in Local Limited Partnerships are subject to the
risks incident to the management and ownership of low-income housing and to the
management and ownership multifamily residential real estate. Some of these
risks are that the Low Income Housing 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 interests in the Local
Limited Partnerships at the end of the Compliance Period. The value of the
Partnership's investments could 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 will 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 Partner and the Local
General Partners, 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 18 of the Apartment Complexes acquired by the
Partnership were completed and in operation. The Apartment Complexes owned by
the Local Limited Partnerships in which the Partnership has invested were
developed by the Local General Partners who acquired the sites and applied for
applicable mortgages and subsidies. The Partnership became the principal limited
partner in these Local Limited Partnerships pursuant to arm's-length
negotiations with the Local General Partners. As a limited partner, the
Partnership's liability for obligations of each Local Limited Partnership is
limited to its investment. The Local General Partner of the Local Limited
Partnership retain responsibility for developing, constructing, maintaining,
operating and managing the Apartment Complex.

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.

Impact of Year 2000

The General Partner 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, the General Partner 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. The
General Partner developed a compliance plan for each of its business computer
systems, with particular attention given to critical systems. The General
Partner 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.

The Local General Partners and/or property management companies maintain the
business computer systems that relate to the operations of the Local Limited
Partnerships. The General Partner is in the process of obtaining completed
questionnaires from such Local General Partners and property management
companies to assess their respective Year 2000 readiness. The General Partner
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, the General Partner
intends to develop contingency plans which may include changing property
management companies.

Outside Vendors

The General Partner 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 Partner,
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

The General Partner has determined that its personal computers and related
software critical to the operations of the Partnership are Year 2000 compliant.
