HUD Handbook 4350.3: Occupancy Requirements of Subsidized Multifamily Housing Programs
Prorated Assistance
HUD Handbook 4350.3 REV-1 — Occupancy Requirements of Subsidized Multifamily Housing Programs · 2026 edition · updated 2026-10-05 · United States
If a family is eligible for prorated assistance and is not receiving continued assistance, and if the termination of the family’s assistance is not temporarily deferred, the amount of assistance the family receives is adjusted based on the number of family members who are eligible compared with the total number of family members. The prorated assistance is calculated by multiplying a family’s full assistance by a fraction.
NOTE: See Exhibits 3-12, 3-13, and 3-14 for more information on proration procedures regarding the restriction of assistance to noncitizens.
- Section 8. For Section 8 assistance programs, the number of eligible people in the family divided by the total number of persons in the family determines the fraction. Then, this fraction is multiplied by the full assistance payment. The reduced assistance payment results in a revised tenant rent for the family.
