• Regulation:24 CFR 982.503(b)(1)(iv) Exception Payment Standards up to 120% of the SAFMRs for PHAs that are in mandatory SAFMR areas.

Project/Activity: Notice PIH 2023-29 Extension of Certain Regulatory Waivers for the Housing Choice Voucher (including Mainstream) Program and Streamlined Review Process.

Nature of Requirement: At the request of a PHA administering the HCV program under Small Area FMRs, HUD may approve an exception payment standard for a Small Area FMR area above the 110 percent of the published FMR in accordance with conditions set forth by Notice in the Federal Register .

Reason Waived: The PHAs were authorized to adopt a payment standard above the basic range, up to 120 percent of the Small Area FMR. These waivers were approved consistent with the streamlined regulatory waiver process in Notice PIH 2023-29, which allowed PHAs to request regulatory waivers that would assist PHAs in responding to ongoing fluctuations and disruptions in the rental market by providing more flexibility with establishing and applying payment standards. These waivers were provided to the PHAs because allowing for an exception payment standard up to 120 percent of the Small Area FMR helped ensure that families living in rental markets with ongoing fluctuations and disruptions were not adversely impacted by rapidly increasing rents and were able to find rental units with their voucher.

Granted by: Dominique Blom, General Deputy Assistant for Public and Indian Housing.
