5-II.C. EXCEPTIONS TO SUBSIDY STANDARDSIn determining family unit size for a particular family, the PHA may grant an exception to itsestablished subsidy standards if the PHA determines that the exception is justified by the age,sex, health, handicap, or relationship of family members or other personal circumstances[24 CFR 982.402(b)(8)]. Reasons may include, but are not limited to:A need for an additional bedroom for medical equipmentA need for a separate bedroom for reasons related to a family member’s disability, medical orhealth conditionFor a single person who is not elderly, disabled, or a remaining family member, an exceptioncannot override the regulatory limit of a zero or one bedroom [24 CFR 982.402(b)(8)].PHA PolicyThe PHA will consider granting an exception for any of the reasons specified in theregulation: the age, sex, health, handicap, or relationship of family members or otherpersonal circumstances.The family must request any exception to the subsidy standards in writing. The requestmust explain the need or justification for a larger family unit size, and must includeappropriate documentation. Requests based on health-related reasons must be verified bya qualified medical professional. The family’s continued need for an additional bedroomdue to special medical equipment must be re-verified at annual reexamination.The PHA will notify the family of its determination within 10 business days of receivingthe family’s request. If a participant family’s request is denied, the notice will inform thefamily of their right to request an informal hearing.5-II.D. VOUCHER ISSUANCE [24 CFR 982.302]When a family is selected from the waiting list (or as a special admission as described in Chapter4), or when a participant family wants to move to another unit, the PHA will issue a <strong>Housing</strong>Choice Voucher, form HUD-52646. This chapter deals only with voucher issuance forapplicants. For voucher issuance associated with moves of program participants, please refer toChapter 10.The voucher is the family’s authorization to search for housing. It specifies the unit size forwhich the family qualifies, and includes both the date of voucher issuance and date of expiration.It contains a brief description of how the program works and explains the family obligationsunder the program. The voucher is evidence that the PHA has determined the family to beeligible for the program, and that the PHA expects to have money available to subsidize thefamily if the family finds an approvable unit. However, the PHA does not have any liability toany party by the issuance of the voucher, and the voucher does not give the family any right toparticipate in the PHA’s housing choice voucher program [Voucher, form HUD-52646]A voucher can be issued to an applicant family only after the PHA has determined that thefamily is eligible for the program based on information received within the 60 days prior toissuance [24 CFR 982.201(e)] and after the family has attended an oral briefing [HCV 8-1].Page 5-10© Copyright 2008 Nan McKay & Associates, Inc.
