Operative Text

HUD HCV Guidebook § 1
PHAs must1 reexamine the income and composition of Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) families at least
annually. In accordance with policies set in their administrative plans, PHAs may require families to report
interim changes in family income or family circumstances as well. A family’s failure to comply with the PHA’s
reexamination requirements is grounds for terminating assistance.

PHAs must2 establish reasonable procedures for conducting reexaminations of families’ income that allow for
proper and timely verification of all information and advance notification to the family of any rent change. The
family must3 supply any information requested by the PHA or HUD for use in a regularly scheduled
reexamination or interim reexamination of family income and composition and sign the HUD-9886.
