The policy on ARS does not apply to those participants with enhanced vouchers, or participants on the MRP or SRO Programs.
The ARS certification code will apply to any “continuously assisted” family who is not in an assisted unit at the time the voucher is issued, e.g. a family that is between units. The ARS certification must be used if a family wishes to port out at the time of their AR. A payment hold must be placed for the tenant until the next certification is completed. Another certification must be submitted within 60 days of the ARS certification date. The next certification will be one of the following: AR in the same unit, AR in different unit, or EOP.
The collection and submission of income/asset/expense verifications is not required for the completion of an ARS certification. Complete the ARS certification with the previous year's AR information. Submit the 1344 for the ARS certification to the appropriate MSHDA office for case approval.
Note: Rental and utility payments will not be made because a payment hold has been placed on the tenant.
