Finding Text
Except as provided in 24 CFR section 982.203 (Special admission (non-waiting list)), all families admitted to the program must be selected from the waiting list. “Selection” from the waiting list generally occurs when the PHA notifies a family whose name reaches the top of the waiting list to come in to verify eligibility for admission (24 CFR sections 5.410, 982.54(d), and 982.201 through 982.207).The above requirements were not met for the 2023 audit.During the audit we selected 4 tenants to test, we noted 4 out of the 4 tenants did not have documentation showing how the tenants were selected from the waiting list.Personnel responsible for selecting new tenants from the waiting list did not keep support.The above condition resulted in the Authority being out of compliance with federal regulations.We recommend that Management implement procedures to ensure compliance with the above regulations as it relates to the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program.
