Dear Fellow Shareholder:

We are pleased to present the Semi-Annual Reports for the Thornburg Limited Term
U.S.  Government Fund and for the Thornburg Limited Term Income Fund for the six
months  ended  March 31,  1996.  If you owned the  Thornburg  Limited  Term U.S.
Government Fund A Shares for the entire period, you received income dividends of
38 cents per share. If you owned C Shares,  you received income  dividends of 35
cents per share.  If you owned the  Thornburg  Limited Term Income Fund A Shares
for the entire period,  you received income  dividends of 38 cents per share. If
you owned C Shares, you received income dividends of 36 cents per share.

The last six months have continued a period of change and volatility in the bond
markets.  Long term interest rates,  after falling  steadily  through 1995, have
risen since the middle of February. Now they are higher than they were last fall
and are near the levels of a year ago. Signs of commodity prices  increasing and
continued growth in jobs and the economy have put the slow growth, low inflation
scenario, so recently favored by the economists, out of favor.

Prices of bonds have changed with the changes in interest rates. The graph below
shows the change in price over the last 6 months of the  Thornburg  Limited Term
U.S.  Government Fund and the Thornburg Limited Term Income Fund with the change
in price of the 5-year U.S. Treasury 6.25% Note due August 2000. As you can see,
the price volatility of the funds has been less than that of the U.S.
Treasury Note.

These funds are managed bond  portfolios.  We ladder the maturities of the bonds
in the portfolios so that some bonds are maturing at par during each of the next
ten years or so. The average  weighted  maturity of the  Thornburg  Limited Term
U.S. Government Fund is currently 3.8 years and the average weighted maturity of
the Thornburg  Limited Term Income Fund is currently  4.7 years.  We always keep
them below 5 years.

Over the years,  our practice of laddering a diversified  portfolio of short and
intermediate  bonds has given  these  funds the  ability  to  perform  well in a
variety of interest rate  environments.  Take a look at The Wall Street  Journal
mutual fund  listings  printed on Fridays.  I think you will see that the grades
these funds have  received are  something of which you can be proud.  While past
performance  is no  guarantee  of  future  results,  we feel  that  we are  well
positioned and will maintain a steady course.

We feel the  Thornburg  Limited  Term  U.S.  Government  Fund and the  Thornburg
Limited Term Income Fund are appropriate  investments  over time.  Thank you for
investing in our funds.

Sincerely,



Steven J. Bohlin
Managing Director

Note 1 - ORGANIZATION

Thornburg  Limited  Term  U.S.  Government  Fund  (the  "Government  Fund")  and
Thornburg  Limited Term Income Fund (the "Income Fund"),  hereafter  referred to
collectively  as the "Funds",  are a series of Thornburg  Investment  Trust (the
"Trust",  formerly known as Thornburg Income Trust). The Trust is organized as a
Massachusetts business trust under a Declaration of Trust dated June 3, 1987 and
is registered as a diversified, open-end management investment company under the
Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.  The Trust is currently issuing four
series of shares of  beneficial  interest  in  addition  to those of the  Funds:
Thornburg  New  Mexico  Intermediate   Municipal  Fund,  Thornburg  Intermediate
Municipal  Fund,  Thornburg  Florida  Intermediate  Municipal Fund and Thornburg
Value Fund.  Each series is  considered  to be a separate  entity for  financial
reporting and tax purposes.

On  September  1, 1994 the  Funds  began  offering  three  classes  of shares of
beneficial interest, Class A, Class B and Class C shares. All shares outstanding
prior to September 1, 1994 are considered Class A shares. On September 28, 1995,
all  existing  Class B shares were  converted  at net asset  value,  without the
imposition  of a deferred  sales  charge,  into Class A shares of an  equivalent
value. The Fund no longer offers Class B shares.  Each class of shares of a Fund
represents an interest in the same portfolio of investments of the Fund,  except
that (i) Class A shares are sold subject to a front-end  sales charge  collected
at the time the shares are purchased and bear a service fee, (ii) Class B shares
were sold at net asset value without a sales charge at the time of purchase, but
were subject to a contingent  deferred  sales charge upon  redemption,  and bore
both a service fee and a distribution  fee, (iii) Class C shares are sold at net
asset  value  without a sales  charge at the time of  purchase,  but,  effective
October  2, 1995,  are  subject  to a  contingent  deferred  sales  charge  upon
redemption  within one year, and bear both a service fee and a distribution fee,
and  (iv)  the  respective  classes  have  different  reinvestment   privileges.
Additionally,  each Fund may allocate among its classes certain expenses, to the
extent allowable to specific classes,  including transfer agent fees, government
registration  fees,  certain printing and postage costs, and  administrative and
legal expenses.  Currently,  class specific expenses of the Funds are limited to
distribution fees and minor custody and transfer agent expenses.

Note 2 - SIGNIFICANT  ACCOUNTING POLICIES Significant accounting policies of the
Funds are as follows:

Valuation of Investments:  In determining net asset value,  the Funds utilize an
independent pricing service approved by the Trustees. Debt investment securities
have a primary market over the counter and are valued on the basis of valuations
furnished  by  the  pricing  service.   The  pricing  service  values  portfolio
securities at quoted bid prices or the yield equivalents when quotations are not
readily available. Securities for which quotations are not readily available are
valued at fair value as  determined  by the pricing  service using methods which
include  consideration of yields or prices of obligations of comparable quality,
type of issue,  coupon,  maturity,  and  rating;  indications  as to value  from
dealers and general  market  conditions.  The valuation  procedures  used by the
pricing service and the portfolio  valuations received by the Funds are reviewed
by the  officers  of the Funds under the general  supervision  of the  Trustees.
Short-term  instruments  having  a  maturity  of 60 days or less are  valued  at
amortized cost , which approximate market value.

Federal  Income  Taxes:  It is the  policy  of the  Funds  to  comply  with  the
provisions of the Internal  Revenue code  applicable  to  "regulated  investment
companies"  and to  distribute  all of their taxable  income,  including any net
realized gain on  investments  to its  shareholders.  Therefore no provision for
federal income taxes is required.

When-Issued  and  Delayed  Delivery  Transactions:   The  Funds  may  engage  in
when-issued or delayed delivery transactions.  To the extent the Funds engage in
such  transactions,  they  will do so for the  purpose  of  acquiring  portfolio
securities  consistent with their investment  objectives and not for the purpose
of investment leverage or to speculate on interest rate changes. At the time the
Funds make a commitment to purchase a security on a when-issued basis, they will
record the  transaction  and  reflect the value in  determining  their net asset
value.  When  effecting  such  transactions,  assets  of the  Funds of an amount
sufficient to make payment for the portfolio  securities to be purchased will be
segregated on the Funds'  records at the trade date.  Securities  purchased on a
when-issued or delayed  delivery basis do not earn interest until the settlement
date.

Dividends: Net investment income of the Funds is declared daily as a dividend on
shares for which the Funds have received payment. Dividends are paid monthly and
are reinvested in additional shares of the Funds at net asset value per share at
the close of business on the  dividend  payment  date,  or at the  shareholder's
option,  paid in cash.  Net  capital  gains,  to the extent  available,  will be
distributed annually.

General:  Securities  transactions  are  accounted  for on a trade  date  basis.
Interest  income is accrued as earned.  Premiums and original issue discounts on
securities  purchased are amortized over the life of the respective  securities.
Realized  gains  and  losses  from the sale of  securities  are  recorded  on an
identified cost basis. The Funds invest in various  mortgage backed  securities.
Such securities pay interest and a portion of principal each month which is then
available for investment in securities at prevailing prices.

Foreign Currency  Transactions:  With respect to the Income Fund, portfolio 
securities and other assets and liabilities  denominated in foreign currencies 
are translated into U.S. dollars based on the rate of exchange of such 
currencies  against U.S. dollars on the date of valuation.  Purchases and sales 
of portfolios  securities and interest denominated in foreign currencies are 
translated  into U.S.dollar amounts on the respective dates of such transactions

The Fund does not isolate  that portion of the results of  operations  resulting
from changes in foreign  exchange  rates on  investments  from the  fluctuations
arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such  fluctuations are
included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

Reported  net  realized  foreign  exchange  gains or losses  arise from sales of
foreign  currencies,  currency  gains or losses  realized  between the trade and
settlement  dates on  securities  transactions  and the  difference  between the
amount of interest  recorded on the Fund's books, and the U.S. dollar equivalent
of the amounts actually received or paid.

Use of Estimates:  The preparation of financial  statements,  in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles,  requires management to make estimates
and assumptions  that affect the reported  amounts of assets and liabilities and
disclosure of  contingent  assets and  liabilities  at the date of the financial
statements  and the reported  amounts of increases  and  decreases in net assets
from operations  during the reporting  period.  Actual results could differ from
those estimates.

Note 3 - INVESTMENT ADVISORY FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Pursuant to the investment  advisory  agreement,  Thornburg  Management Company,
Inc. (the "Adviser") provides investment management and advisory services to the
Funds for which fees are  computed  at the rate of one half of one  percent  per
annum of the average daily net assets of the Government Fund and five eighths of
one percent per annum of the average  daily net assets of the Income  Fund.  The
investment  advisory agreement provides that if, with respect to any fiscal year
of each Fund, its total operating expenses (including  investment advisory fees,
but  excluding  interest,   taxes,  brokerage  commissions,   and  extraordinary
expenses)  exceed the most  restrictive  of the expense  limitations  imposed by
state  securities  commissions  of the states in which each Fund  currently  has
registered its securities for sale, the investment advisory fees for that fiscal
year will be reduced or the Adviser  will assume  certain  Fund  expenses by the
amount of such excess.  For the  Government  Fund's period ended March 31, 1996,
the Adviser  voluntarily  deferred  advisory fees of $5,920 and assumed  certain
operating expenses amounting to $7,026. For the Income Fund's period ended March
31, 1996, the Adviser voluntarily  deferred advisory fees of $56,948 and assumed
certain operating expenses amounting to $11,786. These expenses may be repaid to
the Adviser by the Fund,  however  such  repayment  will depend upon the overall
level of Fund expenses for the entire fiscal year ending September 30, 1996.

The Funds have  underwriting  agreements with Thornburg  Securities  Corporation
(the  "Distributor"),  which acts as the  Distributor of Funds' shares.  For the
period ended March 31, 1996,  the  Distributor  earned  commissions  aggregating
$16,795  and $5,857 from the sale of Class A shares of the  Government  Fund and
Income Fund,  respectively,  and  collected  contingent  deferred  sales charges
aggregating $199 from redemptions of Class C shares of the Income Fund.

Pursuant  to a Service  Plan under Rule 12b-1 of the  Investment  Company Act of
1940,  each Fund may  reimburse to the Adviser an amount not to exceed .25 of 1%
annum of its average net assets for payments  made by the Adviser to  securities
dealers and other financial  institutions to obtain various  shareholder related
services.  The  Adviser  may pay out of its own funds  additional  expenses  for
distribution of each Fund's shares.

Each fund has also adopted Distribution Plans pursuant to Rule 12b-1, applicable
only to each  Fund's  Class B and  Class C shares  under  which  the  Funds  can
reimburse the Distributor for certain  distribution  expenses on a monthly basis
at an annual rate of up to .75% of the average daily net assets  attributable to
Class B shares and compensate the Distributor for services in promoting the sale
of Class C shares of the Funds at an  annual  rate of up to .75% of the  average
daily net assets  attributable  to Class C shares.  Total fees  incurred by each
class of shares of the Funds under  their  respective  Service and  Distribution
Plans for the period  ended  March 31,  1996 are set forth in the  statement  of
operations.

Certain officers and trustees of the Funds are also officers and/or directors of
the Adviser and Distributor.  The compensation of unaffiliated  directors of the
Fund is borne by the Fund.
