Recently, CLPHA outlined HUD’s allocation methodology and process for awarding the newly available 19,700 incremental Housing Choice Vouchers (HCV) in PIH Notice 2022-29. These vouchers are being treated as regular HCVs and are not special-purpose vouchers. Every public housing agency (PHA) that administers the HCV program is eligible to receive a minimum of three vouchers to a maximum of 450 vouchers based on need and agency capacity.
On Friday, HUD released a list of awards and CLPHA members were allocated 4,094 of the new HCVs. The American Rescue Plan and FY 2022 budget collectively provided nearly 100,000 new HCVs, including the more than 19,000 vouchers being announced today. In June, HUD announced $43 million in FY21 funding to fund approximately 4,000 new incremental housing choice vouchers, or “Stability Vouchers,” focused on people experiencing unsheltered homelessness, including in rural areas.

As CLPHA previously reported, HUD is not setting any special terms or conditions for these vouchers as they are an allocation of regular HCVs that will roll into a PHAs regular renewals after the first year. MTW agencies also have the flexibility to apply fungibility to the new HCVs. PIH Notice 2022-29 also stipulates that PHAs are eligible for a one-time administrative fee to assist with leasing these vouchers quickly.
