Screening for Suitability

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

Screening is used to help ensure that families admitted to a property will abide by the terms of the lease, pay rent on time, take care of the property and unit, and allow all residents to peacefully enjoy their homes. Information collected through the screening process enables owners to make informed and objective decisions to admit applicants who are most likely to comply with the terms of the lease. An effective screening policy will also ensure fair, consistent, and equal treatment of applicants. All screening criteria adopted by the owner must be described in the tenant selection plan and consistently applied to all applicants in a non-discriminatory fashion and in accordance with all applicable fair housing and civil rights laws.
