Section 380.505 of 47 Ill. Admin. Code pt. 380 requires participating landlords to complete and submit the Agency-provided certification form for each unit receiving Rental Assistance, attesting that the applicable lease does not violate federal, state, or local law or Part 380. Compliant operators typically review their lease agreements against applicable legal requirements before signing the certification and retain copies of submitted forms for their records. Ensuring leases are current and legally sound before certification is a standard practice among operators participating in LAA-administered programs.

Under 47 Ill. Admin. Code pt. 380 § 380.505, tenants in units receiving Rental Assistance have an interest in knowing that their landlord has certified the lease's compliance with federal, state, and local law as a condition of program participation. If a tenant believes their lease contains terms that violate applicable law, they may raise that concern with the LAA administering the program or consult a local tenant-rights organization familiar with Illinois rental assistance rules. Tenants can also explore whether a lease provision that conflicts with law could be raised as a defense or complaint through available administrative or legal channels.
