24 C.F.R. § 200.1001
§ 200.1001 Cross-reference. (24 CFR Part 200)
Operative Text
The provisions in subpart B of part 5 of this title apply to Social Security Numbers and Employer Identification Numbers for assistance applicants and participants.
Section 200.1001 is a cross-reference rule that directs readers to a separate set of federal regulations—specifically subpart B of 24 CFR Part 5—for the requirements governing Social Security Numbers and Employer Identification Numbers in the context of HUD assistance programs. Rather than restating those requirements, this provision simply establishes that they apply to both applicants seeking assistance and current program participants. The substantive rules about how these identification numbers must be collected, disclosed, and verified are found in that referenced subpart, not here.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers administering HUD-assisted housing programs should be aware that § 200.1001 points to subpart B of 24 CFR Part 5 as the governing authority for Social Security Number and Employer Identification Number requirements. Compliant operators generally maintain intake and verification procedures that align with those cross-referenced rules for every applicant and participant in their programs. Keeping documentation practices consistent with the requirements in subpart B of Part 5 is a standard part of administering federally assisted housing.

Under § 200.1001, the rules about Social Security Numbers and Employer Identification Numbers that apply to you as an applicant or participant in a HUD assistance program are found in subpart B of 24 CFR Part 5. If you have questions about what information a program is permitted to collect or how it must be handled, reviewing that subpart or contacting a local tenant-rights organization can help clarify your rights. If you believe a program's identification-number practices are not consistent with those federal requirements, you may have the option of raising the issue with the relevant housing authority or HUD directly.
