HUD Rules on Waiting List Management & Tenant Selection Plan

Overview:

Maintaining an up-to-date and well-managed waiting list promotes fair and consistent treatment of families, ensures that families receive assistance as quickly as possible, and assists PHAs in complying with their fair housing and civil rights requirements. Structuring the waiting list, the documentation needed from applicants, and the selection criteria are the critical steps in helping the PHA maintain high leasing and occupancy rates.
 

The purpose of this webinar is to provide PHAs with guidance for drafting waiting list and tenant selection policies in an Admissions and Continued Occupancy Policy (ACOP). While HUD has certain requirements for selection and admission to the Public Housing (PH) program, PHAs have flexibility in how they administer the waiting list.

This webinar will demonstrate options for accepting applications, managing the waiting list and selecting families from the waiting list.
