Summary:  HUD's Notice (PIH Notice 2011-66) provides Public Housing Agencies (PHAs) with updated information on the most current extension of the DHAP- Ike program. Modifications have been made which will change the PHAs’ administration of the program. The information provided in this notice will supersede the guidance provided in the following notices: PIH 2008-38, PIH 2008-45, PIH 2010-22, and PIH 2011-35.

HUD's Notice also sets forth amendments to the Extension Operating Requirements, which establish the policies and procedures for the October 2011 DHAP-Ike Extension, as authorized by Inter-Agency Agreement (IAA) Number HSFEHQ-08-X-1760, Modification 18.  The program was scheduled to end on September 30, 2011, but was extended for the final time with an absolute termination date no later than January 31, 2012. Any PHA that agrees to administer the DHAP-Ike Extension must do so in accordance with these extension requirements, the original DHAP-Ike operating requirements (originally established with
