PART I
Item 1.  Business

Organization

WNC  Housing  Tax Credit Fund II,  L.P.  ("HTCF II" or the  "Partnership")  is a
California limited  partnership formed under the laws of the State of California
on January 19, 1990.  The  Partnership  was formed to invest  primarily in other
limited  partnerships which will own and operate  multi-family housing complexes
that will  qualify  for low income  housing  credits  (the "Low  Income  Housing
Credit").

The  general  partner of the  Partnership  is WNC  Financial  Group,  L.P.  (the
"General Partner").  The general partners of WNC Financial Group, L.P. are WNC &
Associates,  Inc. ("Associates" .) and Wilfred N. Cooper, Sr. Wilfred N. Cooper,
Sr.  Through  the  Cooper  Revocable  Trust,  owns  just  less  than  70% of the
outstanding  stock of  Associates  John B. Lester,  Jr. is the original  limited
partner of the Partnership and owns,  through the Lester Family Trust, just less
than 30% of the outstanding stock of Associates. The business of the Partnership
is conducted  primarily  through the General Partner,  as the Partnership has no
employees of its own.

On April 27, 1990, the  Partnership  commenced a public offering of 12,000 units
of Limited Partnership  Interests ("Units"),  at a price of $1,000 per Unit. The
General  Partner  concluded  the sale of Units on December  31, 1992. A total of
7,000 Units representing $7,000,000 had been sold. Holders of Units are referred
to herein as "Limited Partners."

Description of Business

The  Partnership's  principal  business  objective  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  ("Local Limited  Partnerships") each of which will own and operate
an apartment complex ("Apartment Complex") which will qualify for the Low Income
Housing Credit.  In general,  under Section 42 of the Internal  Revenue Code, an
owner of low-income housing can receive the Low Income Housing Credit to be used
against  Federal  taxes  otherwise  due in each year of a ten year  period  (the
"Credit Period".  The Apartment Complex is subject to a fifteen-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  interest  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  year  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  Agreement will be able to

                                       1
<PAGE>

be accomplished promptly at the end of the Compliance 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.

 As of December 31, 1997,  HTCF II had invested in  twenty-seven  Local  Limited
Partnerships.  Each of these Local Limited Partnerships own an Apartment Complex
that is 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 of 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 Local Limited
Partnerships at the end of the Compliance Period. The value of the Partnership's
investments   will  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 could 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 general  partners of
the Local  Limited  Partnerships,  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 of the Apartment  Complexes  were completed and in
operation.  The Apartment  Complexes owned by the Local Limited  Partnerships in
which HTCF II has  invested  were  developed by the Local  General  Partners who
acquired the sites and applied for applicable  mortgages and subsidies.  HTCF II
became  the  principal  limited  partner  in these  Local  Limited  Partnerships
pursuant to arm's-length  negotiations with Local General Partners. As a limited
partner,  HTCF II liability for obligations of the Local Limited  Partnership is
limited  to its  investment.  The Local  General  Partner  of the Local  Limited
Partnership retains  responsibility for maintaining,  operating and managing the
Apartment Complex.

The  following  is a schedule  of the status as of  December  31,  1998,  of the
Apartment  Complexes  owned by Local Limited  Partnerships in which HTCF II is a
limited partner.

Impact of Year 2000

Associates 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,  Associates  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.
Associates  developed  a  compliance  plan  for  each of its  business  computer
systems,  with  particular  attention  given  to  critical  systems.  Associates
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 or property  managers  maintain the business computer
systems  that  relate  to the  operations  of the  Local  Limited  Partnerships.
Associates  is in the process of obtaining  completed  questionnaires  from such
Local  General  Partners  and  property  management  companies  to assess  their
respective  Year 2000  readiness.  Associates  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, Associates intends to develop contingency plans which may include
changing property management companies.

Outside Vendors

Associates 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

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

Item  9.  Changes  in and  Disagreements  With  Accountants  on  Accounting  and
Financial Disclosure

          (a)(1) (i) On December 16, 1998,  Corbin & Wertz,  Irvine,  California
          was dismissed as the Partnership's principal independent accountant.

               (ii) The  reports  of  Corbin & Wertz  respecting  the  financial
          statements of the  Partnership did not contain an adverse opinion or a
          disclaimer of opinion, nor were any such reports qualified or modified
          as to uncertainty,  audit scope, or accounting  principles,  as of and
          for the years ended December 31, 1997 and 1996.

               (iii) The  decision  to change  accountants  was  approved by the
          board of directors of Associates,  the general  partner of the General
          Partner.

               (iv)  During the last two  fiscal  years and  subsequent  interim
          period of the Partnership there were no disagreements between Corbin &
          Wertz and the  Partnership  on any matter of accounting  principles or
          practices,  financial  statement  disclosure,  or  auditing  scope  or
          procedure of the nature described in Item  304(a)(1)(iv) of Securities
          and Exchange Commission Regulation S-K.

               (v)  During  the last two  fiscal  years and  subsequent  interim
          period  of the  Partnership  there  were no  reportable  events of the
          nature  described  in Item  304(a)(1)(v)  of  Securities  and Exchange
          Commission Regulation S-K.

          (a)(2) On February 3, 1999, BDO Seidman,  LLP, Costa Mesa,  California
          was engaged as the  Partnership's  principal  independent  accountant.
          During the last two fiscal years and subsequent  interim period of the
          Partnership,   the  Partnership  did  not  consult  BDO  Seidman,  LLP
          regarding (i) either,  the  application of accounting  principles to a
          specified  transaction;  or the type of audit  opinion  that  might be
          rendered on the Partnership's financial statements, or (ii) any matter
          that  was  the  subject  of  a   disagreement   (as  defined  in  Item
          304(a)(1)(iv) of Securities and Exchange Commission Regulation S-K) or
          was a reportable event (as defined in Item  304(a)(1)(v) of Securities
          and Exchange Commission Regulation S-K).
