will also be able to evaluate their efforts through the completion of
this report and will have data and evidence of program effectiveness
available for both their future use and that of the public. HUD will
use the Payment Voucher to monitor use of grant funds for eligible
costs over the term of the grant. The Grantee may similarly use this
form to track and record their requests for payment reimbursement for
grant-funded expenses.
