Exhibit 3-14: Section 236 With Benefit of Additional Assistance – Special Instructions for Determining Prorated Assistance Payment and Prorated Total Tenant Payment/Tenant Rent for Families Subject to Proration Procedures Regarding the Restriction on Assistance to Noncitizens

5. Federal Government/Uniformed Services Pensions

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

In instances where the applicant/tenant is a retired Federal Government/Uniformed Services employee receiving a pension that is determined by a state court in a divorce, annulment of marriage, or legal separation proceeding to be a marital asset and the court provides OPM with the appropriate instructions to authorize OPM to provide payment of a portion of the retiree’s pension to a former spouse, that portion to be paid directly to the former spouse is not counted as income for the applicant/tenant. However, where the tenant/applicant is the former spouse of a retired Federal Government/Uniformed Services employee, any amounts received pursuant to a court ordered settlement in connection with a divorce, annulment of marriage, or legal separation are reflected on a Form-1099 and is counted as income for the applicant/tenant. (See Paragraph 5-6.K.4 for more information on Federal Government/Uniformed Services pension funds paid to a former spouse.)

  1. Other state, local government, social security or private pensions.

Other state, local government, social security or private pensions where pensions are reduced due to a court ordered settlement in connection with a divorce, annulment of marriage, or legal separation and paid directly to the former spouse are not counted as income for the applicant/tenant and should be handled in the same manner as 5, above.
