Also known as "tenant protection" or "sticky" vouchers, enhanced vouchers are used to preserve affordability for eligible households residing in buildings undergoing housing conversion actions such as mortgage prepayments, project-based opt-outs, HUD enforcement actions, and HUD property disposition.
The income limits for enhanced vouchers are higher than for tenant-based vouchers, and the subsidy is not limited to the Payment Standard. In many instances, rents increase when the building converts, often to market rates.
Vouchers will be offered only to icome eligible applicants residing in the development at the time of conversion.
HPD works closely with building management to ensure that all tenants have the opportunity to apply. Some differences between Enhanced and Tenant-Based Vouchers are listed below. Building management is responsible to inform tenants that the development is converting and that Enhanced Vouchers will be offered to eligible tenants. HPD will inform tenants of their eligibility status shortly after they apply for a voucher, and eligible tenants will be invited to an informational meeting with HPD.
By law, families that receive enhanced voucher assistance must pay for rent no less than the rent the family was paying as of the effective date of the conversion. Like regular tenant-based voucher holders, Enhanced voucher holders can move anywhere in the country where Section 8 is administered and continue to receive assistance with the rent, if the move is approved by HPD.
