  partnership interests in Series 36;

o the price of the certificates is $10 each with a minimum investment of $5,000;

            Prior Performance of Boston Associates and Its Affiliates

Boston Capital Tax Credit Fund IV L.P. (the "Fund") has issued other series in
other offerings--Series 20 to Series 35. The Fund has issued a total of
52,857,259 certificates, raised $528,273,500 and admitted 29,957 investors
within Series 20 through 35, and may still sell up to $121,726,500 to the public
if all the certificates in Series 36 are sold. See "Prior Performance of Boston
Associates and Its Affiliates" in the Prospectus for information about Series 20
through 34.

The Fund received orders for a total of 3,562,700 Series 35 certificates
($35,627,000), and issued the last of these certificates on June 25, 1999. The
fees paid as of June 25, 1999 to Boston Capital and affiliates for Series 35
totaled $4,203,986. No additional Series 35 certificates will be offered.

                 Investment Objectives and Acquisition Policies

Series 36's principal business is to invest, as a limited partner, in other
limited partnerships (the "operating partnerships"), each of which will develop,
own and operate an apartment complex which is expected to qualify for federal
housing tax credits in order to achieve the investment goals set forth in the
Prospectus.

To achieve these investment objectives, Series 36 will invest in apartment
complexes with a goal of generating tax credits, upon completion and occupancy
of all the apartment complexes averaging approximately $1.00 to $1.10 per
certificate annually--10%-11% annual tax credit as a percentage of capital
invested--for the ten-year credit period. Series 36 has selected a 10%-11%
annual tax credit as a percentage of capital invested, as an investment
objective, after consulting with the underwriter regarding tax-free returns



currently available to investors in other similar tax credit investments. No
additional tax credits will be available for the remaining term of the
fifteen-year federal housing tax credit compliance period. This calculation
assumes:

o the applicability of current tax law;

o each apartment complex is occupied with qualifying individuals throughout the
  fifteen-year federal housing tax credit compliance period; and

o investors cannot use any passive tax losses generated by Series 36.

Possible Internal Rate of Return

The internal rate of return is the rate at which the present value of your
future tax benefits would equal the cost of your investment. In essence, it
illustrates your future tax credit benefit as a return of principal and interest
in today's dollars.

For investors in the 15%-39.6% tax bracket respectively, the tax-free rate of
return goal is approximately 2.5%-5% exclusive of any cash available for
distribution if:

o none of the apartment complexes invested in have any value at the end of the
  fifteen-year federal housing tax credit compliance period; and

o investors do use for tax purposes the assumed loss of the investor's entire
  capital contributions.

The tax-free rate of return will exceed 2.5% -5% if:

o the value of the apartment complexes exceeds indebtedness plus sale expenses;
  and

o investors receive distributions from these sales or refinancings.

In accordance with the rules for the allocation of federal housing tax credits,
Series 36's investment goal is for the following annual tax-free amounts for
each $10,000 investment in Series 36: $300-$400 in 2000; $1,000-$1,100 in
2001-2009; and $700-$800 in 2010. This tax credit investment goal is not a
forecast of anticipated tax credits, nor does it represent a yield or return on
investment. Rather it is an investment goal of Series 36 for the credit period
applicable to its investments. There is no assurance that any particular
tax-free internal rate of return will be achieved.

The attainment of Series 36's investment objectives will depend on many factors,
including the ability of Boston Associates to select suitable investments on a
timely basis, the timely completion and successful management of such
investments and future economic conditions in the United States. Accordingly,
there can be no assurance that Series 36 will meet its investment objectives.

                             Anticipated Investments

Series 36 expects to invest in the ten operating partnerships described below.
Each operating partnership will use a significant part of the funds invested by
Series 36 to pay fees to the operating general partners. See the table entitled
"Terms of Investment in Operating Partnerships" in this Supplement.

While Boston Associates believes that Series 36 is reasonably likely to acquire
interests in the apartment complexes described below, it may not be able to do
so. Before any acquisition is made, Boston Associates will complete its due
diligence review as to the operating partnership and its apartment complex. This
process will include the review and analysis of information concerning, among
other matters, market competition and environmental factors. If any significant
adverse information is obtained by Boston Associates, either action will be
taken to mitigate the adverse factor(s), or the acquisition will not be made. It
is also possible that the acquisition terms may differ significantly from those
described below. Accordingly, investors should not rely


                                        2



on the ability of Series 36 to invest in these apartment complexes or under the
described investment terms in deciding whether to invest in Series 36. If Series
36 raises the entire $25 million, the anticipated acquisition of the operating
partnership interests, described below, will represent approximately 79% of the
total money which Series 36 currently expects to spend.

Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of
Operations

Because Series 36 is currently in the offering phase, it has no material assets
or any operating history. Series 36 expects to acquire interests in the
following ten operating partnerships, seven of which are to be newly constructed
and three of which are to be rehabilitated:

                                       3



Permanent Mortgage Loan financing for the apartment complexes will be provided
from a variety of sources. Boston Associates believes that each of the apartment
complexes will have adequate property insurance. The tables included in this
Supplement describe in greater detail information concerning the apartment
complexes and the anticipated terms of investment in each operating partnership.

The priority return base for Series 36 is $1.05 per certificate (10.5%). The
priority return base is the level of return that investors must receive before
Boston Associates may receive a 5% share in the proceeds from the sale or
refinancing of apartment complexes. In establishing the priority return base,
Boston Associates does not represent that Series 36 is expected to provide this
level of return to investors. Boston Associates will receive fees and
compensation for services prior to investors receiving the priority return.

Boston Associates and its management have reviewed the potential computer
problems that may arise from the century date change known as the "Year 2000" or
"Y2K" problem. Boston Associates is currently taking the necessary precautions
to minimize any disruptions in normal operations that may cause a materially
adverse impact on Series 36's liquidity and financial condition. The majority of
Boston Associates' systems are "Y2K" compliant, including its
Accounting/Financial systems and database systems. For all remaining systems,
Boston Associates has contacted the vendors to provide the necessary upgrades,
replacements, and testing no later than year-end 1999. Boston Associates is
committed to ensuring that the "Y2K" issue will have no impact on our investors.
None of the costs incurred creating "Y2K" compliant systems will be paid by
Series 36 but rather by affiliates of Boston Associates.
