The same benefits are excluded when a household seeks other housing help
What the document says“``(v) for the purpose of determining income eligibility with respect to any household receiving rental assistance under the supported housing program under section 8(o)(19) as it relates to eligibility for other types of housing assistance, any disability benefits received under chapter 11 or chapter 15 of title 38, United States Code, received by a veteran, but such amounts shall not be excluded from income when determining adjusted income;''.”
The section adds a further clause excluding the same disability benefits from income when a household already receiving rental assistance under the supported housing program is judged for eligibility for other types of housing assistance, again keeping the amounts in income for adjusted income.
What the document actually says“``(v) for the purpose of determining income eligibility with respect to any household receiving rental assistance under the supported housing program under section 8(o)(19) as it relates to eligibility for other types of housing assistance, any disability benefits received under chapter 11 or chapter 15 of title 38, United States Code, received by a veteran, but such amounts shall not be excluded from income when determining adjusted income;''.”
A household may already get rent help from that program. When it seeks other help, the pay is left out again. It still counts in adjusted income.
A veteran may need to move from one program to another. Counting the money could block that step. This keeps the same test in both places.
No action is recorded against this proposal. That is not evidence that none has been taken, and nobody has yet read it against the record. See what the tracker does not yet cover.
