Chapter 7 <br />VERIFICATION <br />[24 CFR 982.516, 24 CFR 982.551, 24 CFR 5.230, Notice PIH 2O10-19] <br />INTRODUCTION <br />SAHA must verify all information that is used to establish the family's eligibility and level of <br />assistance and is required to obtain written authorization from the family in order to collect the <br />information. Applicants and program participants must cooperate with the verification process as <br />a condition of receiving assistance. SAHA must not pass on the cost of verification to the family. <br />SAHA will follow the verification guidance provided by HUD in Notice PIH 2O10-19 and any <br />subsequent guidance issued by HUD. This chapter summarizes those requirements and provides <br />supplementary SAHA policies. <br />Part I describes the general verification process. Part II provides more detailed requirements <br />related to family information. Part III provides information on income and assets, and Part IV <br />covers mandatory deductions. <br />Verification policies, rules and procedures will be modified as needed to accommodate persons <br />with disabilities. All information obtained through the verification process will be handled in <br />accordance with the records management policies of SAHA. <br />
