Voucher

Summary:  Prior to HUD’s issuance of PIH Notice 2013-4, PHAs were required by HUD to verify the documentation submitted by households of various sources of income and/or benefits, but PHAs were also required to exclude some or all of these amounts for purposes of determining eligibility and rent calculations.  In another major victory for NAHRO and its members who worked on this issue, HUD recently PIH issued this Notice to help prevent PHAs from having to participate in this “Kafkaesque” process and thereby reduce administrative burdens

Summary:  HUD's Notice (PIH Notice 2012-9) implements the Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) program funding provisions of the ―Consolidated and Further Continuing Appropriations Act, 2012‖ (PL 112-55), enacted on November 18, 2011. The 2012 Act establishes the allocation methodology for calculating housing assistance payments (HAP) renewal funds, new incremental vouchers and administrative fees.
