​​​​​​​​The assisted household must promptly report changes in household income and family members between annual re-examinations. Required reporting must be done within 30 days of the date of that the change occurred. Failure to report required changes in income within the 30-day grace period will result in a Repayment Agreement and/or termination from the program. The Housing Department will continue to re-verify all income at the annual recertification.


If there is any question about what to report, contact the Section 8 staff or submit the change no matter how small. 

Required reporting includes:

  • Changes in Family Composition. This includes deleting or adding a household member(s)

  • Increases or Decreases in Income such as employment, Social Security Benefits, assets (stocks, interest on savings accounts, business income), VA benefits, pensions, child support, alimony and regular contributions​​ or gifts.
