Prohibition Against Double Subsidies

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

Under no circumstances may any tenant benefit from more than one of the following subsidies: Rent Supplement, RAP, Section 202 PAC, Section 202 PRAC or Section 811 PRAC, project-based Section 8 housing assistance, including Section 202/8, or any Public and Indian Housing (PIH) rental assistance programs.

  1. Tenants must not receive assistance for two units at the same time.

  2. Tenants must not benefit from Housing Choice Voucher assistance in a unit already assisted through project-based Section 8, Rent Supplement, RAP, Section 202 PAC or Section 202 PRAC and Section 811 PRAC.

  3. This prohibition does not prevent a person who is currently receiving assistance from applying for an assisted unit in another property. The assisted tenancy in the unit being vacated must end the day before the subsidy begins in the new unit.

    • Owners must use the EIV Multiple Subsidy Report to search for tenants who may be receiving assistance at more than one location or under more than one HUD rental assistance program. See Chapter 9, Enterprise Income Verification (EIV),*
