the program that are displaced as a result of the prepayment of the mortgage or voluntary termination of an insurance contract on eligible low-income housing, are not counted for income targeting purposes [24 CFR 982.20 1 (b)(2)(v)]. SAHA Policv SAHA will monitor progress in meeting the income targeting requirement throughout the fiscal year. Extremely low-income families will be selected ahead of other eligible families on an as -needed basis to ensure the income targeting requirement is met. Order of Selection SAHA system of preferences may select families based on local preferences according to the date and time of application or by a random selection process (lottery) [24 CFR 982.207(c)]. If a PHA does not have enough funding to assist the family at the top of the Waiting List, it is not permitted to skip down the Waiting List to a family that it can afford to subsidize when there are not sufficient funds to subsidize the family at the top of the Waiting List [24 CFR 982.204(d) and (e)]. SAHA Policv Families will be selected from the Waiting List based on the local preference(s) for which they qualify, and in accordance with SAHA's hierarchy of preferences. Within each preference category, families will be selected by assigned lottery number (score), if lottery was performed when placed on the Waiting List. Documentation will be maintained by SAHA as to whether families on the list qualify for and are interested in targeted funding. If a higher placed family on the Waiting List is not qualified or not interested in targeted funding, there will be a notation maintained so that SAHA does not have to ask higher placed families each time targeted selections are made. 4-III.D. NOTIFICATION OF SELECTION When a family has been selected from the Waiting List, SAHA must notify the family [24 CFR 982.554(a)]. SAHA Policv SAHA will notify the family by first class mail when it is selected from the Waiting List. The notice will inform the family of the following: ■ Date, time, and location of the scheduled orientation or application interview, including any procedures for rescheduling the interview. ■ Who is required to attend the interview. ■ Documents that must be provided at the interview, including information about what constitutes acceptable documentation. ■ Other documents and information that should be brought to the interview. If a notification letter is returned to SAHA with or without a forwarding address from the US Postal Service, the family will be removed from the Waiting List.
