SERIES 6
[GRAPHIC OMITTED]
Supplement Dated December 23, 1998
To Prospectus Dated June 23, 1997
This Supplement is part of, and should be read in conjunction with, the
Prospectus of WNC Housing Tax Credit Fund VI, L.P., Series 6 ("Series 6") dated
June 23, 1997 (the "Prospectus"), and the Supplement to Prospectus dated
November 18, 1998. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Supplement
have the meanings given to them in the Prospectus.
STATUS OF SERIES 6 OFFERING
As of the date hereof, Series 6 has received subscriptions in the
amount of $5,864,250 (5,866 Units), of which $207,500 currently is
represented by Promissory Notes.
LOCAL LIMITED PARTNERSHIP INVESTMENTS
In addition to the Local Limited Partnership Interests identified in
the Supplement to Prospectus dated November 18, 1998, Series 6 has acquired a
Local Limited Partnership Interest in Desloge Associates I, L.P. ("DESLOGE");
and has identified for acquisition a Local Limited Partnership Interest in
Brighton Ridge Apartments, L.P. ("BRIGHTON"). DESLOGE owns the Eagles Landing
Apartments in Desloge, Missouri; and BRIGHTON owns the Brighton Ridge Apartments
in Edgefield, South Carolina.
While the Fund Manager believes that Series 6 is reasonably likely to
retain or acquire an interest in the Local Limited Partnerships identified
herein, Series 6 may not do so as a result of the failure by a Local Limited
Partnership to satisfy one or more conditions precedent to the payment of each
installment payment, the inability of Series 6 to raise additional capital
necessary to complete the purchase of the Local Limited Partnership Interests
identified herein, the purchase of Local Limited Partnership Interests other
than the Local Limited Partnership Interests identified herein, or other
factors. Moreover, the terms of the acquisition may differ from those as
described. Accordingly, investors should not rely on the ability of Series 6 to
retain or acquire an investment in the Local Limited Partnership Interests
identified herein on the indicated terms in deciding whether to invest in Series
6.

Complex and the Local Limited Partnerships identified herein:
