Item 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER

This Amendment No. 7 amends and supplements the statement on Schedule 13D filed with the SEC on 2/15/22, as amended by Amendment No 1 filed 3/1/22, Amendment No 2 filed 3/28/22, Amendment No 3 filed 4/12/22, Amendment No 4 filed 5/3/22, Amendment No 5 filed 5/12/22, and Amendment No. 6 filed 5/27/22; with respect to the common shares of Delaware Investments National Municipal Income Fund.  This Amendment No. 7 amends Items 3, 4, 5(a) & (c), 6 and 7 as set forth below.

Item 3. SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

Item 3 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:

Funds for the purchase of the Common Shares were derived from the subscription proceeds from investors and the capital appreciation thereon and margin account borrowings made in the ordinary course of business.  In such instances, the positions held in the margin accounts are pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in the account, which may exist from time to time.  Since other securities are held in the margin accounts, it is not possible to determine the amounts, if any, of margin used to purchase the Common Shares reported herein. A total of approximately $45,631,600 was paid to acquire the Common Shares reported herein.

Item 4. PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

Item 4 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

On July 22, 2022, Saba Capital entered into a standstill agreement (the "Agreement") with the Issuer and Delaware Management Company, the investment adviser of the Issuer, pursuant to which the Issuer agreed to commence, on November 14, 2022, a cash tender offer to purchase up to 50% of its outstanding Common Shares at a price per share equal to 99.0% of the Issuer's net asset value per share (the "Tender Offer").  Saba Capital agreed to tender all of the Common Shares then owned by Saba Capital and one or more private funds and accounts managed by Saba Capital (the "Saba Private Funds") in the Tender Offer.

The Agreement also provides for customary standstill provisions during the period from the date of the Agreement through the date that is the earlier of (a) the day following the Issuer's 2024 annual meeting of shareholders; (b) such date that the Issuer determines not to conduct the Tender Offer; and (c) the date that is 60 days prior to the last date that a shareholder proposal pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act or trustee nomination is permitted to be submitted to the Issuer for the 2025 annual meeting of shareholders.

---

The foregoing summary of the Agreement shall not be deemed complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Agreement, the form of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 4 to this Schedule 13D and incorporated by reference herein.

Item 5. INTEREST IN SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

Item 5(a) and (c) of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and restated as follows:

(a) See rows (11) and (13) of the cover pages to this Schedule 13D/A for the aggregate number of Common Shares and percentages of the Common Shares beneficially owned by each of the Reporting Persons.  The percentages used herein are calculated based upon 20,956,695 shares of common stock outstanding as of 3/31/22, as disclosed in the company's N-CSR filed 6/8/22.

(c) The transactions in the Common Shares effected since the Schedule 13D/A filing on 5/27/22 by the Reporting Persons, which were all in the open market, are set forth in Schedule A, and are incorporated herein by reference.

Item 6. CONTRACTS, ARRANGEMENTS, UNDERSTANDINGS OR RELATIONSHIPS WITH RESPECT TO SECURITIES OF THE ISSUER

Item 6 of the Schedule 13D is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

The Reporting Persons' response to Item 4 is incorporated by ref erence into this Item 6.
