In the event that HUD determines billing payments have continued for at least three months because the receiving PHA failed to notify the initial PHA that the billing arrangement was terminated, the receiving PHA must take the following steps: • Return the full amount of the overpayment, including the portion provided for administrative fees, to the initial PHA. • Once full payment has been returned, notify the Office of Public Housing in the HUD area office with jurisdiction over the receiving PHA of the date and the amount of reimbursement to the initial PHA. At HUD's discretion, the receiving PHA will be subj ect to the sanctions spelled out in Notice PIH 2011-3 . Denial or Termination of Assistance At any time, the receiving PHA may make a determination to deny or terminate assistance to a portable family for family action or inaction [24 CFR 982.355(c)(9), 24 CFR 982.355(c)(10)]. In the case of a termination, SARA should provide adequate notice of the effective date to the initial PHA to avoid having to return a payment. In no event should the SARA fail to notify the initial PHA later than 10 days following the effective date of the termination of the billing arrangement. [Notice PIH 2011-3 ] If SARA elects to deny or terminate assistance for a portable family, SARA will notify the initial PHA within 10 days after the informal review or hearing if the denial or termination is upheld. SARA will base its denial or termination decision on the policies set forth in Chapter 3 or Chapter 12, respectively. The informal review or hearing will be held in accordance with the policies in Chapter 16. The receiving PHA will furnish the initial PHA with a copy of the review or hearing decision. Absorbing a Portable Family The receiving PHA may absorb an incoming portable family into its own program when SARA executes a HAP contract on behalf of the family or at any time thereafter providing that (a) SARA has funding available under its annual contributions contract (ACC) and (b) absorbing the family will not result in over-leasing [24 CFR 982.3 5 5 (d)(1), Notice PIH 2011-3 ] . If the receiving PHA absorbs a family from the point of admission, the admission will be counted against the income targeting obligation of the receiving PHA [24 CFR 982.201(b)(2)(vii)] . If SARA decides to absorb a portable family upon the execution of a HAP contract on behalf of the family, SARA will notify the initial PHA by the initial billing deadline specified on form HUD-52665. The effective date of the HAP contract will be the effective date of the absorption. If SARA decides to absorb a family after that, it will provide the initial PHA with 30 days' a vance notice. Following the absorption of an incoming portable family, the family is assisted with funds available under the consolidated ACC for the receiving PHA's voucher program [24 CFR 982.355(4)], and the receiving PHA becomes the initial PHA in any subsequent moves by the family under portability. 7/02/12 Page 10-14
