Income rules may be waived for a deployed or relocating service member
The document says “can”Who acts: participating jurisdictionsHow: statuteSec. 501 in the PDF
What the document says
“``(ii) orders for a permanent change of station.”
The section adds a new subsection (c) to section 215 of the Cranston-Gonzalez National Affordable Housing Act letting a participating jurisdiction, on terms the Secretary sets, suspend or waive the income qualifications for housing whose owner is a member of a regular component of the armed forces or a member of the National Guard on the duty statuses named, and who has received temporary duty orders to deploy for at least 90 days to a place not within a reasonable distance of the home, or orders for a permanent change of station.
What the document actually says
“``(ii) orders for a permanent change of station.”
That sentence, in plain words
The member has orders to move to a new duty station for good.
What this is about
A service member who owns such a home may be sent away. Then the income rules can be set aside. The other path is orders to deploy for 90 days or more.

How to Read This Page
The quotation is the document's own words, exactly as printed, and we check the page
number against the Act itself before publishing. The paragraph underneath is our summary,
not the document's words. So is the plain English version, which is why it sits beside the
quotation rather than replacing it.
