D. Proration of Rent: Pro-ration of Rental Assistance: A mixed family shall have their housing assistance prorated according to the number of family members who have eligible status. 1. The steps to prorate the Total Tenant Payment (―TTP‖) are as follows:
a. Determine TTP, using income of all family members, including any family member who has not established eligible immigration or citizenship status. b. Subtract the TTP from a HUD-required Public Housing Maximum Rent applicable to the PHA.
This sum is the maximum subsidy for which the family could qualify if all members were eligible (―Family Maximum Subsidy‖)
c. Divide the Family Maximum Subsidy by the number of persons in the family to determine maximum subsidy per family member who has eligible status to get the Member Maximum Subsidy. d. Multiply the Member Maximum Subsidy by the number of eligible family members (―Eligible Subsidy‖) e. Subtract the amount of the eligible subsidy from the Public Housing Maximum Rent. 2. HUD Maximum Rent
a. The HUD Maximum Rent is established according to Appendix H of the HUD Guidebook 7465.7, Restrictions on Assistance to Noncitizens b. The maximum rent is based on the value of the 95th percentile of the TTP for each tenant within the SFHA. The TTP is reported on Line 9j of the Form HUD-50058. c. The SFHA shall use a PHA-wide schedule of maximum rents. The maximum rents shall be established for each fiscal year. III.
