Getting It Right the First Time…Income & Eligibility Verification

The Rental Housing Integrity Improvement Program (RHIIP) has determined that the most frequent errors encountered in reviews of annual and adjusted income determinations in tenant files fall into three categories:

• Applicants and tenants failing to fully disclose income information

• Errors in identifying required income exclusions

• Incorrect calculations of deductions

  • Often resulting from failure to obtain third-party verification

In this class we will review the requirements, procedures and methods behind determining annual and adjusted income; income verification and calculating tenant rent.

Like the handbook, this session will be organized as follows

• Determining Annual Income: Discusses the requirements regarding annual income and the procedure for calculating a family’s annual income when determining eligibility. This section also includes guidance on determining income from assets.
   

• Determining Adjusted Income: Describes the procedures and requirements for determining adjusted income based on allowable deductions.
   

• Verification: Presents the requirements for verifying information provided by applicants and tenants related to their eligibility.

Leverage your training costs and avoid the need to travel by taking advantage of RBD's customized, where-you-are training services. By removing staff travel costs and related staff expenses, your per-person fees are significantly lower. This means you get:

• Lower, overall training costs

Each participant receives an in-depth workbook specifically written to act as a valuable reference tool after the training is completed.  In general, customized training is cost-effective with a minimum of 20 participants, but smaller audiences can be accommodated.  We base the cost of customized training on the following:

1. Number of participants

2. Type and length of training

3. Material development, production and shipping

4. Travel and lodging costs for the trainer

RBD uses these factors to establish a base fee for an agreed-upon number of participants. Estimates for travel, material development, reproduction and shipping are provided. If the number of attendees exceeds the agreed-upon minimum, we add a per-student fee for each additional participant.
