information that are verified at admission typically do not need to be re-verified on an annual basis. These include: • Legal identity • Age • Social security numbers • A person's disability status • Citizenship or immigration status If adding a new family member to the unit causes overcrowding according to the Housing Quality Standards (HQS) (see Chapter 8), the PHA must issue the family a new voucher, and the family and PHA must try to find an acceptable unit as soon as possible. If an acceptable unit is available for rental by the family, the PHA must terminate the HAP contract in accordance with its terms [24 CFR 982.403 ] . 11-I.D. DETERMINING ONGOING ELIGIBILITY OF CERTAIN STUDENTS [24 CFR 982.552(b)(5)] Section 327 of Public Law 109-115 established new restrictions on the ongoing eligibility of certain students (both part- and full-time) who are enrolled in institutions of higher education. If a student enrolled in an institution of higher education is under the age of 24, is not a veteran, is not married, does not have a dependent child, and is not a person with disabilities receiving HCV assistance as of November 30, 2005, the student's eligibility must be reexamined along with the income eligibility of the student's parents on an annual basis. In these cases, both the student and the student's parents must be income eligible for the student to continue to receive HCV assistance. If, however, a student in these circumstances is determined independent from his or her parents in accordance with SARA policy, the income of the student's parents will not be considered in determining the student's ongoing eligibility. Students who reside with parents in an HCV assisted unit are not subject to this provision. It is limited to students who are receiving assistance on their own, separately from their parents. During the annual reexamination process, the SARA will determine the ongoing eligibility of each student who is subj ect to the eligibility restrictions in 24 CFR 5.612 by reviewing the student's individual income as well as the income of the student's parents. If the student has been determined "independent" from his/her parents based on the policies in Sections 3-II.E and 7- II.E, the parents' income will not be reviewed. If the student is no longer income eligible based onhis/her own income or the income ofhis/her parents, the student's assistance will be terminated in accordance with the policies in Section 12- I.D. If the student continues to be income eligible based onhis/her own income and the income of his/her parents (if applicable), the SARA will process a reexamination in accordance with the policies in this chapter. ~~02~12 Page 11-3
