5-27 Calculating Assistance Payments for Authorized Police/Security Personnel

HUD Handbook 4350.3 REV-1 — Occupancy Requirements of Subsidized Multifamily Housing Programs · 2026 edition · updated 2026-10-05 · United States

  • A. The amount of the monthly assistance payment to the owner is equal to the contract rent minus the monthly amount paid by the police officer or security personnel. HUD will not increase the assistance payment due to nonpayment of rent by the police officer or security personnel.

NOTE: The owner is not entitled to vacancy payments for the period following occupancy by a police officer or security personnel.

  • B. For police/security personnel whose income exceeds the income limit for the property, the rent is set by the owner.

    1. The determination of the rent amount in such circumstances should take into consideration the income of the officer, the location of the property, and rents for comparable unassisted units in the area.

    2. Owners should establish a rent that is attractive to the officer, but not less than what the officer would pay as an eligible Section 8 tenant.

    3. Owners are expected to use a consistent methodology for each property when establishing the rents for officers in these circumstances.
