  1. HUD-VASH Project-Based Vouchers • HUD published PIH 2009-11 on this subject effective March 16, 2009

  2. Limits on HUD-VASH PBV Units • No more than 50 percent of a PHA’s HUD-VASH allocation of tenant-based vouchers may be project based. • HUD-VASH PBV units are counted in the maximum 20 percent of voucher budget authority that may be project based.

  3. HUD-VASH PBV Proposals • Headquarters must approve a PHA’s proposal to project base HUD-VASH voucher units. • Proposals may be for existing, new construction and substantially rehabilitated units. • PHA PBV proposals must be supported by the VAMC.

  4. Proposal Information • Why the PHA wants to project-base these vouchers rather than providing tenant-based assistance. • Success rate of HUD-VASH voucher holders and other voucher holders • Utilization rate in SEMAP

  5. Proposal Information cont’d • Amount of time, if any, HUD-VASH vouchers would be shelved for development • A description of the project (details in notice)

  6. Continued Assistance for Families that Move • PBV regulations provide that a family may terminate the lease anytime after the first year of occupancy. • Also, the PHA must offer the family continued tenant-based assistance in the form of a voucher or comparable tenant-based rental assistance.

  7. Continued Assistance - 2 • A HUD-VASH family that no longer requires case management cannot be terminated for this reason. • The PHA may offer the family a regular voucher to free up the HUD-VASH voucher. • If there is no regular voucher available, the family can move with its HUD-VASH voucher.

  8. Continued Assistance - 3 If the family takes its HUD-VASH PBV to use as a tenant-based voucher, the PHA must assign a HUD-VASH voucher recipient to the PBV unit. If there is no HUD-VASH voucher available, the PHA may attach a regular voucher, if available, to the PBV unit which must be occupied in accordance with the PHA’s preferences for the unit. Preferences cannot be limited to HUD-VASH voucher holders or participants
