HUD HCV Guidebook § 4.4

Families issued a HUD-VASH voucher:
   • Have at least 120 days to search for a unit (whereas families in the regular voucher program
       have at least 60 days); 10
   • May enter into an initial lease with an owner for less than 12 months (whereas families in the
       regular voucher program must enter an initial lease of 12 months unless a shorter term is the
       prevailing market practice and would improve housing opportunities);11 and,
   • May live on the grounds of a VAMC in units owned by the VA (whereas families in the regular
       voucher program are prohibited from using vouchers for units on the grounds of medical,
       mental, or similar public or private institutions).12
