Imputed Assets <br />SAHA will accept aself-certification from a family as verification of assets disposed of for less <br />than fair market value as permitted by HUD [HCV GB, p. 5-28]. <br />7-I.E. SELF-CERTIFICATION <br />Self-certification, or "tenant declaration," is used as a last resort when the PHA is unable to <br />obtain third-party verification. <br />SAHA staff must document the family's file to explain why third-party verification was not <br />available when SAHA relies on tenant declaration for verification of income, assets, or expenses. <br />SAHA may require a family to certify that a family member does not receive a particular type of <br />income or benefit. <br />The self-certification must be made in a format acceptable to SAHA and must be signed by the <br />family member whose information or status is being verified. All self-certifications must be <br />signed in the presence of a SAHA representative or SAHA notary public. <br />PART II. VERIFYING FAMILY INFORMATION <br />7-II.A. VERIFICATION OF LEGAL IDENTITY <br />SAHA will require families to furnish verification of legal identity for each household member. <br />Verification of Legal Identity for Adults Verification of Legal Identity for <br />Children <br />Certificate of birth, naturalization papers Certificate of birth <br />Church issued baptismal certificate Adoption papers <br />Current, valid driver's license or Custody agreement <br />Department of Motor Vehicles Health and Human Services ID <br />identification card <br />U.S. military discharge (DD 214) School records <br />U.S. passport <br />Employer identification card <br />If a document submitted by a family is illegible or otherwise questionable, more than one of <br />these documents may be required. <br />iii29iio Page 7-8 <br />
