24 C.F.R. § 92.505
§ 92.505 Applicability of uniform administrative requirements. (24 CFR Part 92)
Operative Text
The requirements of 2 CFR part 200 apply to participating jurisdictions, State recipients, and subrecipients receiving HOME funds, except for the following provisions: §§ 200.306, 200.307, 200.308 (not applicable to participating jurisdictions), 200.311 (except as provided in § 92.257), 200.312, 200.328, 200.330, 200.334, 200.335, and 200.344 (except as provided in § 92.507). The provisions of 2 CFR 200.305 apply as modified by § 92.502(c). If there is a conflict between definitions in 2 CFR part 200 and 24 CFR part 92, the definitions in 24 CFR part 92 govern.
Section 92.505 establishes which federal administrative rules govern the use of HOME funds by participating jurisdictions, State recipients, and subrecipients. The standard government-wide cost and administrative requirements found in 2 CFR Part 200 generally apply, but a specific list of those provisions is carved out and does not apply—or applies only in modified form as directed by other sections of 24 CFR Part 92. When a definition in the general federal rules conflicts with a definition in the HOME program rules, the HOME program definition controls.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and developers participating in HOME-funded projects are not direct recipients of federal administrative obligations under § 92.505, but the participating jurisdictions and subrecipients that fund them are bound by this framework. Compliant administrators of HOME funds generally maintain records and financial management systems that satisfy 2 CFR Part 200 as modified, while tracking which specific provisions have been superseded by Part 92. Understanding this layered structure helps property owners anticipate the compliance expectations their funding agreements may flow down to them.
General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.
Tenants living in housing supported by HOME funds benefit indirectly from § 92.505 because it sets the administrative accountability framework that governs how those funds are managed by local agencies and subrecipients. If a tenant believes HOME program rules are not being followed in their housing, they may raise concerns with the local participating jurisdiction, a HUD field office, or a tenant-rights organization familiar with federal housing programs. Knowing that 24 CFR Part 92 definitions take precedence over general federal definitions can be relevant context when reviewing any rights or protections tied to a HOME-assisted unit.
