10-I.F. HAP EXCEPTIONS
Program regulations under [24 CFR 982.31 t(d)] require when a family moves out of an assisted unit, the PHA may not make any housing assistance payment to the owner for any month after the month the family moves out. If a family moves from an assisted unit with continued tenant-based assistance, the term of the assisted lease for the new assisted unit may begin during the month the family moves out of the first assisted unit. Overlap of the last housing assistance payment (for the month when the family moves out of the old unit) and the first assistance payment for the new unit, is not considered to constitute a duplicative housing subsidy.

The PHA should stipulate, and under what conditions, if an owner can keep the housing assistance payment for any days during the move-out month after the day the family moves out of the unit, as well as the earliest effective date the term of the assisted lease for the new assisted unit can begin.

DHA Policy: If current program funding allows, and without advanced notice, DHA retains the discretion to adjust its policy at any time under 10-/.E. to allow or not allow owners to keep the housing assistance payment for any day(s) during the move out month after the date indicated by the household in any written "notice to vacate" and move from the assisted unit.

Earliest Lease Effective Date - Different Property Owner Moves

  • Whether or not the current property owner is allowed to keep the HAP for any day(s) during the move out month after the household moves from the assisted unit to a unit of a different property owner, the earliest effective date of the assisted lease for the new assisted unit and property owner is the day after the move-out date the household indicated in the "written notice to vacate" and moved from the previous assisted unit.

Earliest Lease Effective Date - Same Property Owner Moves

  • If the current property owner is allowed to keep the HAP for any day(s) during the move out month after the household moves from one assisted unit to another assisted unit of that same property owner, the earliest effective date of the assisted lease for the new assisted unit is the first day of the month following the move-out date the household indicated in the "written notice to vacate" and moved from the previous assisted unit.

  • If the current property owner is not allowed to keep the HAP for any day(s) during the move out month after the household moves from one assisted unit to another assisted unit of that same property owner, the earliest effective date of the assisted lease for the new assisted unit and property owner is the day after the move-out date the household indicated in the "written notice to vacate" and moved from the previous assisted unit.
