What are reasons I can ask for an informal hearing? If you disagree with certain decisions made by your public housing agency (PHA) related to your continued assistance or assistance amount under the Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) program, the PHA must give you an opportunity to request an informal hearing. The hearing will consider whether the PHA’s decisions comply with the law, HUD regulations, and PHA policies. A PHA must offer a hearing if requested by you for decisions related to: • Your annual or adjusted income. • Utility allowance (if any) for participant-paid utilities. • Family unit size under the PHA subsidy standards. • Termination of assistance for your family because you did or did not take an action. • Termination of assistance because your family has been absent from the assisted unit longer than permitted under PHA policy and HUD rules. Before the PHA can terminate your housing assistance under an outstanding housing assistance payments (HAP) contract, the PHA must give you the opportunity to request an informal hearing. How do I request an informal hearing? It is your responsibility to request an informal hearing. • For cases related to termination, you must follow the directions on the written decision notification from the PHA on how to request an informal hearing. Be sure to meet any deadlines mentioned. • For all other disputes, the PHA must notify the participant that they may ask for an explanation of the PHA decision. If you do not agree with the decision, you may request an informal hearing. If you request a hearing, the PHA must proceed with the hearing in a reasonable amount of time. The PHA must provide you with a written notification specifying the time, place, and the procedures for the hearing. Who presides over the informal hearing? The PHA may designate any individual or panel of individuals to conduct the hearing, excluding the person or staff of the person who made or approved the decision. This person may be an employee of the PHA, or may be an outside entity. The hearing will be conducted in accordance with the PHA’s hearing procedures. What happens during the informal hearing? The PHA must have an Administrative Plan that states the PHA’s procedures for conducting informal hearings for participants. Administrative plans are available for public review. They are often on the PHA’s website. You must be given the opportunity prior to the PHA hearing to examine any PHA documents that are relevant to the hearing, such as records and regulations.
