Demystifying the Elusive Earned Income Disallowance (EID)

Objectives:

• To clarify the qualifying factors and documentation required for Public Housing Residents and HCV Disabled Participants
• To present and practice correctly and accurately calculating the disallowance for a qualified household member, tracking the use of the benefit and completion of an accurate rent determination for the household

The Earned Income Disallowance is required by Federal statute and regulation. It is intended to support an assisted housing beneficiary in moving to stable self-sufficiency. At the same time, it is acknowledged to be a challenging and administrative time consuming task.

It is critical for agency staff responsible for administering and completing both re-examinations and interim rent adjustments to objectively and accurately engage the EID benefit as prescribed by law and HUD regulation.

Benefits:

• Increasing staff competency and confidence in accurately applying the benefit
• Professionally communicating and explaining the benefit and calculations to beneficiaries
• Reducing the possibility of HUD audit findings that can result in findings and subsidy recapture
• Increasing the accuracy of rent (Total Tenant Payment) calculations and correct subsidy allocations

The E-Learning will engage participants with hands-on opportunities and provide for individual situations relevant to EID to be demystified. (0.25 CEUs)
