arise during your tenancy or if you require any services or special care, we may contact the person or organization you listed to assist in resolving the
issues or in providing any services or special care to you.
Confidentiality Statement: The information provided on this form is confidential and will not be disclosed to anyone except as permitted by the
applicant or applicable law.
Legal Notification: Section 644 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1992 (Public Law 102-550, approved October 28, 1992)
requires each applicant for federally assisted housing to be offered the option of providing information regarding an additional contact person or
organization. By accepting the applicant’s application, the housing provider agrees to comply with the non-discrimination and equal opportunity
requirements of 24 CFR section 5.105, including the prohibitions on discrimination in admission to or participation in federally assisted housing
programs on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, sex, disability, and familial status under the Fair Housing Act, and the prohibition on
age discrimination under the Age Discrimination Act of 1975.
Signature of Applicant
Date
The information collection requirements contained in this form were submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520). The
public reporting burden is estimated at 15 minutes per response, including the time for reviewing instructions, searching existing data sources, gathering and maintaining the data needed, and completing and
reviewing the collection of information. Section 644 of the Housing and Community Development Act of 1992 (42 U.S.C. 13604) imposed on HUD the obligation to require housing providers participating
in HUD’s assisted housing programs to provide any individual or family applying for occupancy in HUD-assisted housing with the option to include in the application for occupancy the name, address,
telephone number, and other relevant information of a family member, friend, or person associated with a social, health, advocacy, or similar organization. The objective of providing such information is to
facilitate contact by the housing provider with the person or organization identified by the tenant to assist in providing any delivery of services or special care to the tenant and assist with resolving any
tenancy issues arising during the tenancy of such tenant. This supplemental application information is to be maintained by the housing provider and maintained as confidential information. Providing the
information is basic to the operations of the HUD Assisted-Housing Program and is voluntary. It supports statutory requirements and program and management controls that prevent fraud, waste and
mismanagement. In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act, an agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not required to respond to, a collection of information, unless the collection
displays a currently valid OMB control number.
Privacy Statement: Public Law 102-550, authorizes the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to collect all the information (except the Social Security Number (SSN)) which will be
used by HUD to protect disbursement data from fraudulent actions.

Notificación legal: La sección 644 de la Ley de Desarrollo Comunitario y de Vivienda de 1992 (Ley Pública 102-550, aprobada el 28 de octubre de 1992)
exige que a cada solicitante de vivienda con asistencia federal se le ofrezca la opción de proporcionar información relacionada con una persona u organización
de contacto adicional. Al aceptar la solicitud del solicitante, el proveedor de vivienda acuerda cumplir con los requisitos de igualdad de oportunidades y no
discriminación de 24 CFR sección 5.105, que incluye las prohibiciones sobre discriminación en la admisión o participación en programas de viviendas con
asistencia federal debido a la raza, el color de la piel, la religión, el origen nacional, el sexo, la discapacidad y el estado familiar según la Ley de Vivienda
Justa, y la prohibición sobre discriminación debido a la edad según la Ley contra la Discriminación por la Edad de 1975.

Los requisitos de recopilación de información contenidos en este formulario fueron enviados a la Oficina de Administración y Presupuesto (Office of Management and Budget, OMB) según la Ley de
Reducción del Papeleo de 1995 (Título 44, secciones 3501-3520 del Código de los EE. UU.). Se calcula que la carga de declaración pública es de 15 minutos por respuesta e incluye el tiempo para revisar
las instrucciones, buscar fuentes de datos existentes, recopilar y conservar los datos necesarios, y completar y revisar la recopilación de la información. La sección 644 de la Ley de Desarrollo Comunitario
y de Vivienda de 1992 (Título 42, sección 13604 del Código de los EE. UU.) impuso al HUD la obligación de solicitar a los proveedores de viviendas que participan en programas de viviendas con
asistencia del HUD que proporcionen a todas las personas o familias que soliciten la ocupación de una vivienda con asistencia del HUD la opción de incluir en la solicitud el nombre, la dirección, el
número de teléfono y demás información relevante de un familiar, amigo o una persona relacionada con una organización social, médica, de defensa o similar. El objeto de proporcionar tal información es
facilitar el contacto por parte del proveedor de viviendas con la persona u organización identificada por el locatario para que ayude a brindar todo servicio o atención especial al locatario y ayudarlo a
resolver cualquier problema de alquiler que surgiere durante el alquiler por parte de dicho locatario. Esta información de solicitud complementaria será conservada por el proveedor de vivienda y en carácter
de confidencial. Proporcionar la información es básico para las operaciones del Programa de Vivienda con Asistencia del HUD y es un acto voluntario. Respalda los requisitos reglamentarios y los controles
de administración y del programa para prevenir el fraude, el derroche y la mala administración. De conformidad con la Ley de Reducción del Papeleo, una agencia no podrá conducir ni
patrocinar, y no se le solicitará a una persona que responda a una recopilación de información, salvo que en la recopilación de información aparezca un número de control de OMB válido en la actualidad.
Declaración de privacidad: La Ley Pública 102-550 autoriza al Departamento de Vivienda y Desarrollo Urbano de los EE. UU. (HUD) a que recopile toda la información (salvo el número de seguro
social [SSN]), la cual será usada por el HUD para proteger los datos de desembolso de acciones fraudulentas.

F. SOCIAL SECURITY REQUIREMENT
*All applicant and tenant household members must disclose and provide verification of
the complete and accurate SSN assigned to them except for those individuals who do
not contend eligible immigration status or tenants who were age 62 or older as of
January 31, 2010, and whose initial determination of eligibility was begun before January
31, 2010. This paragraph explains the requirements and responsibilities of applicants or
tenants to supply owners with this information, the responsibility of owners to obtain this
information, and the consequences for failure to provide the information.*
Key Requirements
*Applicants and tenants must disclose and provide verification of the
complete and accurate SSN assigned to each household member.
Failure to disclose and provide documentation and verification of SSNs
will result in an applicant not being admitted or a tenant household’s
tenancy being terminated.
Required Documentation
*Applicants and tenants must provide adequate documentation to verify the
complete and accurate SSNs assigned to all household members. Adequate
documentation means a social security card issued by the Social Security
Administration (SSA), an original document issued by a federal or state
government agency, which contains the name and SSN of the individual along
with identifying information of the individual, or other acceptable evidence of the
SSN listed below:
.
Provisions for Accepting Applicants without Documentation of Social
Security Numbers
*An applicant may not be admitted until SSNs for all household members have
been disclosed and verification provided.
G. VALIDATION OF SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER
NAPA PARK HOMES will confirm HUD’s validation of the tenant’s SSN by viewing the
Household’s Summary Report and the Identity Verification Report in the EIV system.
H. TIMEFRAME FOR PROVIDING SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBERS
APPLICANTS CURRENTLY ON OR APPLYING TO WAITING LIST
Applicants do not need to disclose or provide verification of a SSN for all non-exempt
household members at the time of application and for placement on the waiting list.
However, applicants must disclose and provide verification of a SSN for all non-exempt
household members before they can be housed.
I.
HOUSING APPLICANTS FROM THE WAITING LIST
If all household members have not disclosed and/or provided verification of their SSNs at the
time a unit becomes available, the next eligible applicant must be offered the available unit.
The applicant who has not disclosed and provided verification of SSNs for all household
members must disclose and provide verification of SSNs for all household members to the
owner within 90 days from the date they are first offered an available unit.*
If the owner has determined that the applicant is otherwise eligible for admission into the
property, and the only outstanding verification is that of *disclosing and providing verification
of* the SSN, the applicant may retain his or her place on the waiting list for the *90*-day
period during which the applicant is trying to obtain documentation.
After *90* days, if the applicant has been unable to supply the required SSN *and verification*
documentation, the applicant should be determined ineligible and removed from the waiting list.
5 | NAPA PARK HOMES RESIDENT SELECTION CRITERIA-G-08-24-15
J.
VERIFICATION OF SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER
Napa Park Homes will verify and document each disclosed SSN by:
Obtaining the documentation listed below from each member of the applicant’s or
tenant’s household:
Acceptable Verification Documents
Social Security Card
If you do not have a Social Security Card, Napa Park Homes may ask you to
provide one or more of the following documents:
1. Original document issued by a federal or state government agency which
contains the name, SSN, and other identifying information of the
individual*
2. Bank Statement
3. Benefit Award Letter
4. Court Records
5. Driver’s license with SSN
6. Earnings statements on payroll stubs
7. Identification Card Issued by a Medical Insurance Provider, or by an
Employer or Trade Union.
8. Form 1099
9. Life Insurance Policy
10. Retirement Benefit Letter
Making a copy of the original documentation submitted, returning the original to the individual
and retaining the copy in the file folder;
Recording the SSN on line 45 of the form HUD-50059 and transmitting the data to
TRACS in a timely manner.
To ensure that the SSN transmitted to TRACS is valid; Napa Park Homes will use the
Failed EIV Pre-Screening Report and the Failed Verification Report in EIV in accordance
with the instructions in the current HUD Housing Notice, Enterprise Income
Verification System.
The Failed EIV Pre-Screening Report identifies residents who failed the EIV pre-screening
test due to invalid or missing personal identifiers.
The Failed Verification Report identifies residents that have had their personal identifiers sent
to SSA, via HUD’s computer matching program with the SSA, but the data could not be
verified by SSA due to missing or invalid information or other SSA issues.
SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER DOCUMENT REJECTION
We will reject a document that:
Is not an original document; or
Is the original document but it has been altered, mutilated, or is not legible; or
Appears to be a forged document (e.g., does not appear to be authentic).
Applicant or tenant will be notified in writing regarding the reason(s) why the document(s) is not
acceptable and request the individual obtain acceptable documentation.
6 | NAPA PARK HOMES RESIDENT SELECTION CRITERIA-G-08-24-15
ONCE SOCIAL SECURITY NUMBER VERIFIED
Once the individual’s SSN has been verified, Napa Park Homes will remove and destroy
the copy of the documentation referenced above by no later than the next recertification
of family income or composition.
Paper documentation may be destroyed by shredding, pulverizing or burning. Currently,
Napa Park Homes uses the shredding method.
Electronic documentation will be destroyed by erasing or permanently deleting the file.
The retention in the tenant file of the Household Summary Report from the EIV system
which will report the status of the identity verification process provides verification of the
SSN. Retaining this report in the tenant file and destroying the copy of the SSN
documentation will minimize the risk of exposing the individual’s SSN.
K. ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENT FOR STUDENTS WHO ARE HEAD OR CO-HEAD OF A
HOUSEHOLD
The applicant who is the head and/or co-head in the household must be of legal contract age
under state law. The individual must have established a household separate from parents or
legal guardians for at least one year prior to application for occupancy or he/she meets the U.
S. Department of Education’s definition of an independent student. The individual must not
be claimed as a dependent by parents or legal guardians pursuant to IRS regulations. The
individual must obtain a certification of the amount of financial assistance that will be
provided by parents, guardians or others signed by the individual providing the support. This
certification is required even if no assistance will be provided. The financial assistance
provided by persons not living in the unit is part of annual income that must be verified to
determine eligibility and at annual recertification to determine rent.
L.
POLICY FOR ELIGIBILITY OF STUDENTS TO RECEIVE SECTION 8 ASSISTANCE
Restrictions on Eligibility of Students for Section 8 Assistance
NAPA PARK HOMES is required to determine whether applicants are eligible to occupy the
subsidized property and receive housing assistance. Eligibility is determined by federal
statute and HUD regulation. For HUD programs, eligibility is only determined at move-in or
at initial certification except as discussed in paragraphs **3-13, Determining Eligibility of
College Students for Assistance** and paragraphs **3-16 of the HUD 4350.3 Handbook,
Determining the Eligibility of a Remaining Member of a Resident Family. **HUD's general
eligibility requirements are found in HUD's regulations at 24 CFR, part 5.
No assistance shall be provided under Section 8 of the 1937 Act to any individual whom:
a) Is enrolled as either a part-time or full-time student at an institution of higher
education for the purpose of obtaining a degree, certificate, or other program
leading to a recognized educational credential;
b) Is under the age of 24;
c) Is not married;
d) Is not a veteran of the United States Military;
e) Does not have a dependent child;
f) Is not a person with disabilities, as such term is defined in (b) (3) (E)) and was not
receiving section 8 assistance as of November 30, 2005
g) Is not living with his or her parents who are receiving Section 8 assistance; and
h) Is not individually eligible to receive Section 8 assistance and has parents (the
parents individually or jointly) who are not income eligible to receive Section 8
assistance
For a student to be eligible independent of his or her parents (where the income of the
parents is not relevant), the student must demonstrate the absence of, or his or her
independence from, parents. NAPA PARK HOMES may use additional criteria for determining
the student’s independence from parents and the student must meet, at a minimum all of the
following criteria to be eligible for Section 8 assistance. The student must:
7 | NAPA PARK HOMES RESIDENT SELECTION CRITERIA-G-08-24-15
a)
b)
c)
d)
Be of legal contract age under state law;
Have established a household separate from parents or legal guardians for at
least one year prior to application for occupancy, or Meet the U.S. Department of
Education’s definition of an independent student.
Not be claimed as a dependent by parents or legal guardians pursuant to IRS
regulations; and
Obtain a certification of the amount of financial assistance that will
be provided by parents, signed by the individual providing the
support. This certification is required even if no assistance will be
provided.
Any financial assistance a student receives (1) under the Higher Education Act of 1965, (2) from
private sources, or (3) from an institution of higher education that is in excess of amounts
received for tuition is included in annual income, except if the student is over the age of 23 with
dependent children or if the student is living with his or her parents who are receiving Section 8
assistance.
If an ineligible student is a member of an applicant household or an existing household receiving
Section 8 assistance, the assistance for the household will not be prorated but will be terminated
in accordance with the HUD guidance
During the application process, management will appropriately screen applicants and households
for eligibility under this final rule. An applicant who is a student and who does not meet the
income eligibility requirements or jointly, do not meet the income eligibility requirements for
Section 8 assistance are not eligible for Section 8 assistance and will be prohibited from
participating in the program. A student under the age of 24 who is not a veteran, unmarried,
does not have a dependent child and who is currently receiving Section 8 assistance, if at
recertification is determined to be ineligible, will have his/her assistance terminated.
NAPA PARK HOMES will determine a student’s eligibility for Section 8 assistance at move-in,
annual recertification, initial certification (when an in-place resident begins receiving Section 8),
and at the time of an interim recertification if one of the family composition changes reported is
that a household member is enrolled as a student
**Students with disabilities receiving Section 8 as of November 30, 2005 are exempt from
the Independent Student restrictions on receiving Section 8 Rental Assistance.
NOTE: NAPA PARK HOMES cannot evict or require an ineligible student to move from a
unit as long as the student is in compliance with the terms of the lease.
M. RESIDENCE CRITERIA
A. KEY REQUIREMENT
Assisted tenants must have only one residence and receive assistance only in
that unit. This rule is meant to ensure that the government pays assistance on
Only one unit for a family and provides assistance to as many eligible families as
possible with available funding.
B. SOLE RESIDENCE REQUIREMENT
1. A family is eligible for assistance only if the unit will be the family’s only Residence.
2. The owner must not provide assistance to applicants who will maintain a Residence in addition
to the HUD-assisted unit.
C. PROHIBITION AGAINST DOUBLE SUBSIDIES
Under no circumstances may any tenant benefit from more than one of the following subsidies: RENT
SUPPLEMENT, RAP, SECTION 202 PAC, SECTION 202 PRAC OR SECTION 811 PRAC, OR PROJECTBASED SECTION 8 HOUSING ASSISTANCE, INCLUDING SECTION 202/8.
8 | NAPA PARK HOMES RESIDENT SELECTION CRITERIA-G-08-24-15
1.
Tenants must not receive assistance for two units at the same time.
2.
Tenants must not benefit from housing choice voucher assistance in a Unit already assisted
through PROJECT-BASED SECTION 8, RENT SUPPLEMENT, RAP, SECTION 202 PAC OR
SECTION 202 **PRAC** AND **SECTION** 811 PRAC.
This prohibition does not prevent a person who is currently receiving Assistance from applying for an
assisted unit in another property. The Assisted tenancy in the unit being vacated must end the day before
the Subsidy begins in the new unit.

may be released by HUD to other Federal, State and Local Agencies.
In the event the applicant is personally unable to complete the form, the applicant must
provide the information to someone assisting in completing the form. The person assisting
the applicant must sign and date the application, indicating that it was completed at the
direction of the named applicant.
9 | NAPA PARK HOMES RESIDENT SELECTION CRITERIA-G-08-24-15
If an applicant fails to supply all necessary verification forms, information, or meet the
requests of the application process, or Napa Park Homes cannot obtain verification of
specific required information due to illegible forms/application, the applicant will be rejected
(please refer to Rejection Procedures for further information).
**If the applicant is a person with disabilities, Management must consider extenuating
circumstances where this would be required as a matter of reasonable
accommodation.
O. PROCEDURE FOR ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS AND PRE APPLICATIONS
1)
Initial Application. Applications are taken only when the Wait List is open for unit
type being requested. This property does not use pre applications. All Prospective
residents 18 years and over must fill out the application in full. The form is
reviewed with the applicant(s) if application is returned in person to make sure that
answers are clear and that all information is given. All persons intended to reside in
the apartment must be named, and no one not listed may live in the unit. If an
appropriate unit is available now or in the near future, and no eligible waiting list
applicant has priority, the application is processed immediately for approval or rejection.
The application information allows tentative determination (subject to confirmation) of the
applicant’s eligibility (family size, household characteristics, estimated anticipated annual
income, assets now owned and disposition of assets during the previous two years.)
Disability status is required only if the applicant is requesting a disabled-accessible unit
or special accommodation.
Applications may be picked up and dropped off in the management office between the
hours of 9:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m. and 1:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. on Wednesday and
Thursday. We do not accept faxed copies. You may also mail your completed
application. See above for address.
2)
Pre-Qualifying Eligibility. The three applicants at the top of the waiting list are considered
active prospects even if a unit is not yet available. Steps are taken to qualify the applicants
so that when a unit becomes available the pre-screening, including verifications, is already
completed. Verifications are kept current within 120-day periods. If the top applicant is
found to be ineligible, the next party on the wait list is the lead applicant.
3)
Interview. An interview is held to determine final qualifications of the applicant to be placed
in the next available unit. Application information is updated, the applicant is advised of the
penalty for false information, current income and asset data are checked, and additional
verification forms are signed if needed. Social Security information or certifications are given.
Potential accommodation for disabled applicants is considered. Final occupancy
determination is not made until certification procedures are completed.
Upon receipt of the original application, the application is preliminarily reviewed. The
initial review will be for application completeness, to make sure that the application is
legible and to initially determine if the applicant appears to qualify for the Section 8
Program. This in no way means that an applicant qualifies, or is eligible. Eligibility can
be confirmed only after all items, which may have any bearing on the rent that the
applicant may pay, or subsidy he/she may receive are verified: income, assets, family
composition, etc. The applicant must be determined eligible to be offered housing.
As an applicant's name approaches the top of the Waiting List, or when an applicant is
being offered housing, a formal interview will be scheduled. At that time the applicant is
interviewed, all items on the application will be discussed and confirmed, and verification
forms will be signed by the applicant authorizing management to verify all of these
issues/items. Until all items are verified, eligibility cannot be determined, nor any
housing offered. Management must attempt to verify all factors with "third party" written
verification, per HUD Regulations and Procedures.
10 | NAPA PARK HOMES RESIDENT SELECTION CRITERIA-G-08-24-15
In the absence of third party verification within 14 days after attempting third party
verification, and no response being received, management will use “Review of Documents”
to verify items/issues in accordance with the HUD Handbook 4350.3 and all revisions.
4)
Placement on Wait List. A wait list is maintained for each unit type. If no appropriatetype unit is available for eligible applicants, they are placed on the list for desired unit
type, if requested. Based on current experience with turnover on that unit type, an estimate
is made as to the possible length of waiting time. No promise is made, since conditions,
time schedules and priorities may change.
Any applicant, who appears to qualify after Napa Park Homes reviews the application,
but before any information is formally verified, and for whom a unit is not currently
available, will be placed on the Waiting List. All received applications are noted with date
and times received, and enter the Waiting List in the chronological order of receipt. One
Waiting List is maintained for all apartments at Napa Park Homes. The applicant is
informed of the approximate wait for a unit and/or placement position on the waiting list.
It is the applicant’s responsibility to report changes on the application to Napa Park
Homes in a timely fashion.
Any applicant on the Waiting List is required to contact Napa Park Homes every six (6)
months to update their information, by completing a revised application form when
necessary. Any applicant on the Waiting List is required to contact the Napa Park Homes
when a change of address, phone, income or family composition occurs. This contact
must be done in the form of writing. Contact may be initiated by Napa Park Homes in
the form of a routine letter/postcard, sent to all applicants on the Waiting List,
requesting update information, asking if they wish to remain on the Waiting List and
stating that if the letter is not responded to within fourteen (14) days, their name will be
dropped from the Waiting List without further notice.
When the number of names/families on the Waiting List for any particular size exceeds
the annual apartment turn over for that size unit, the Waiting List may be closed.
Management will advise potential applicants of the closure of the waiting list and refusal
to take additional applications. A notice will be prominently posted in the
Management/rental office or reception area and in a local newspaper, stating the reason
Waiting List is closed and the effective date of the closure. When the Waiting list is to be
reopened, notice of this will be placed in the same local publication, as well as
notifications sent to appropriate social service agencies stating when the Waiting List will
be re-opened, as well as times and days that applications will be taken. This is done in
accordance with the Affirmative Fair Housing and Marketing Plan (HUD Form
935.2A).
If an applicant on the Waiting List is offered an apartment and refuses the offered
apartment, he or she may remain on the Waiting List if the refusal is for a verifiable
medical reason. The applicant will move to the bottom of the Waiting List. Any other
refusal reasons are considered valid reasons for refusal at management's discretion. In
any event, a second refusal, for any reason other than one due to a medical reason, will
cause the application to be rejected and the applicant's name removed from the Waiting
List. This applicant may reapply in the future, at a time that applications are being taken.
When a unit becomes available, in-place residents requiring a different unit will be
housed appropriately before we move in an applicant on the Waiting List. This allows
management to treat current residents having the greatest housing need prior to
applicants on the Waiting List. In this manner, we are able to avoid displacing, through
any action, current residents whose housing needs have changed since admission.
Applicants who are experiencing hardships due to health reasons will not be moved from
their original date on the waiting list if proper documentation is received by management.
5)
Notification and Updating. The applicant is notified when an appropriate unit is available.
Applicant interest is verified at least annually. The applicant can be asked to re-contact the office
in six months; however, management is responsible for reviewing the list and confirming
11 | NAPA PARK HOMES RESIDENT SELECTION CRITERIA-G-08-24-15
continued applicant interest and eligibility. An annual inquiry letter sent by management does
this. If there is no response from applicant within two weeks after sending letter, or a negative
response (returned undeliverable), the applicant is removed from the waiting list.
6)
Applicant Refusal. Applicants who are offered occupancy and refuse an apartment two different
times will be removed from the waiting list, unless the applicant has a verified “hardship”. A
“hardship” will be defined as, but not limited to, poor health.
7)
Holding Period. An apartment will be held for a maximum of 14 days for an applicant (from the
time the applicant is notified that an apartment is available) to effective date of the lease.
8)
Changes to Application. All changes to the application and waiting list updates must be in
writing from the applicant. Changes to the application will become effective when received from
the applicant at the rental office. It is the responsibility of applicant to notify management of any
changes to the contact information. Applicants may be rejected if they do not keep management
informed of current contact information.
9)
Process Start. When the applicant’s name nears the top of the Waiting List, the detailed
verifications process begins. Resident files contain documentation of all verifiable data. All
information pertinent to the eligibility, admission and continued occupancy of a resident
household must be verified in accordance with Federal program regulations. Interviewing and
documentation will be completed by the management staff to ensure that all applicants/residents
are made aware of the Federal program regulations. Verifications will be used to determine if all
of the information contained on the Application/Recertification Checklist is true and correct.
Information to be verified includes, but is not limited to:
Allowances
Assets
Credit History
Criminal Record
Enterprise Income Verification (EIV) will be used to determine if applicants are receiving
Section 8 subsidy from their current landlord
Enterprise Income Verification (EIV) will then be used on all residents at their interim and
annual recertifications to check the records kept by certain public agencies
Family Composition
Income from all sources
Rental History
SAVE System for noncitizen status
Interview. The eligible applicant/resident is interviewed by the Management Representative to
determine their eligibility status. At this time the applicant/resident is requested to sign releases
for verification.
Documents. All “permanent” documents (photo identification i.e. driver licenses, birth
certificates, social security cards, etc.) are photocopied and placed in the applicant/resident file,
at the time of application.
Independent Verification. Third parties are used as a primary source for information.
Release Consent. All applicants and residents (age of 18 and up) are required to sign Consent to
the Release of information (HUD 9887 AND 9887a) at admission, annual recertification, interim
recertification or initial certification. Failure to do so is grounds for rejection or termination of
your lease.
Zero Income. An applicant or resident who claims zero income will be required to complete and
sign a Certification of No Income on a monthly basis by the sixth (6th) of each month. If an
applicant/resident does not apply for benefits for which they may be qualified (e.g., AFDC,
unemployment, child support, etc.), verification by the Management Representative of not
receiving benefits is not required. However, there must be a signed statement from the
applicant/resident verifying that they have chosen not to participate in the benefit program for
which they may be eligible in the applicant file.

P.
ENTERPRISE VERIFICATION SYSTEM (EIV)
The use of the EIV system as upfront income verification (UIV) technique, serves as a valuable
tool in validating tenant reported income during interim and annual recertifications of family
income; as well as in streamlining the income verification process, resulting in less administrative
burden in complying with third party verification requirements. EIV helps identify and cure
inaccuracies in housing subsidy determinations, which benefits Napa Park Homes, residents and
taxpayers by ensuring that the level of benefits provided on behalf of families is proper. Finally,
the use of EIV assists in preventing fraud, waste and abuse within Multifamily Housing’s Rental
Assistance Programs.
EXISTING TENANT SEARCH REPORT
This report identifies applicants applying for assisted housing that may be receiving rental
assistance at the time of application processing at another location.
We will use this report during the interview process as follows:
(1) When we are processing an applicant for admission to determine if the applicant or any
applicant household members are currently being assisted at another Multifamily Housing or
Public and Indian Housing (PIH) location.
(2) Discuss with the applicant if the report identifies that the applicant or a member of the
applicant’s household is residing at another location, giving the applicant the opportunity to
explain any circumstances relative to his/her being assisted at another location.
(3) Follow up with the respective PHA or O/A to confirm the individual’s program
participation status before admission, if necessary, depending on the outcome of the
discussion with the applicant. The report gives Napa Park Homes the ability to coordinate
move-out and move-in dates with the PHA or Owner/Agent of the property at the other
location.
(4) Retain the search results with the application along with any documentation obtained as a
result of contacts
ANNUAL RECERTIFICATION
A current form HUD-9887 must be on file before accessing the employment or income data
contained in EIV for a tenant. The form must be signed and dated by:
(1) Each adult member of a household regardless of whether he or she has income.
(2) The head of household, spouse or co-head, regardless of age, and each family member
who is 18 years of age or older must sign and date the form at move-in, at initial (when
tenant begins receiving a subsidized rent, e.g., Section 236, tenant begins receiving
Section 8 and annual recertification)
(3) A family member when he/she turns 18.
The form is valid for 15 months from the date of signature.
Q.
PROCEDURES FOR APPLYING PREFERENCES INCLUDING INCOME-TARGETING IN
SECTION 8 PROPERTIES
1) Preferences.
Napa Park Homes has permanently suspended Federal Preferences, in accordance with HUD
directives. However, preference will be given to individuals and families displaced by
government action or a presidentially declared disaster. In the event of such a displacement
by government action, selection of displaced applicants will follow in compliance with the
Extremely Low Income requirements.
13 | NAPA PARK HOMES RESIDENT SELECTION CRITERIA-G-08-24-15
Preferences affect only the order of applicants on the Wait List. They do not make anyone
eligible who was not otherwise eligible, and they do not change management’s right to adopt
and enforce resident screening criteria (please refer to ELI Procedures within this Plan for
further information).
2)
Special Priority. NAPA PARK HOMES has no apartments especially equipped for
persons with physical disabilities. Reasonable accommodations will be made for those
people who are disabled in accordance with Section 504.
3)
Income-Targeting (HUD 4350.3: 4-5). NAPA PARK HOMES is required to lease not less
than 40% of the dwelling units (assisted under the contract) that become available for
occupancy in any property fiscal year to extremely low-income families. To accomplish this
income-targeting requirement, management will alternate between the first extremely lowincome applicant on the waiting list and the applicant at the top of the waiting list (HUD
4350.1, 4-5 B 2 b (2). To implement this method, NAPA PARK HOMES will select the first
extremely low-income applicant on the waiting list (which may mean “skipping over” some
applicants with higher incomes) for the available unit, and then select the next eligible
applicant currently at the top of the waiting list (regardless of income level) for the next
available unit. As subsequent units become available, resident selection continues to
alternate between the next extremely low-income applicant and the eligible applicant and the
eligible applicant at the top of the waiting list until the 40% target is reached. A status letter
will be sent to any qualified applicant who may have been skipped over in order to meet HUD
required income targeting.
R. APPLICANT SCREENING CRITERIA
The following are areas management will consider when approving applicants for residency:
Assets
In accordance with the Department of Housing and Urban Development’s guidelines, we will
apply an asset test to all applicants.
Assets include all liquid asset accounts, including but not limited to Checking Accounts,
Certificates of Deposit, Gifts, Savings Accounts and stocks.
Causes for Rejection
An applicant will only be rejected after consideration of the Mitigating Circumstances Policy,
including but not limited to successful rent payment history over the past 36 months. The causes
for rejection are further outlined in each of the sections noted below.
Certification Process
Upon initial occupancy, household income cannot exceed the income restriction for the respective
unit size as determined by the area median income which is adjusted for household size.
Third-party income verification will be required from all sources, including, but not limited to:
Child/Spousal/Family support;
Disability;
Employment;
Government Assistance, SSI, TANIF, AFDC, GA, etc.;
Pensions/Retirement/Annuities;
Property, Home, Stocks, Bonds, Annuities, IRA, etc.;
Savings and Checking;

14 | NAPA PARK HOMES RESIDENT SELECTION CRITERIA-G-08-24-15
Credit
A credit check will be run on all applicants 18 years and over at initial certification as condition of
occupancy.
Credit standards are set forth below:
Applicant passes review by credit agency and/or by direct contact with banks and other
financial sources. Lack of credit history in itself does not justify rejection. Past credit
problems may be explained by the applicant so that credit judgment is made on current
information.
Credit reports are pulled for all adult household members. Each member must meet the same
requirements. Although there are some exceptions listed below in the Reasons to Overturn a
Rejection upon Appeal Section, reasons for rejection of an application due to information
contained on applicant’s credit report include the following factors that have affected
applicant’s ability to pay rent in prior tenancies:
Bankruptcy/Repossessions
Any personal bankruptcy within the past thirty six months that has
not been remedied
Charge-Offs/Collections
Accounts over 120 Days Past Due within the past thirty six months
“Charge-Off” of delinquent debt within the past thirty six months
Unpaid collections, judgments or liens exceeding $5,000.00, excluding
medical bills and student loans within the past thirty six months;
Unpaid balance due a current or prior landlord;
A significant number (3) of Non Sufficient Funds (NSF) checks within
the past thirty six month period;
Evictions/Prior Landlords/ Unlawful Detainers

financial obligations in past tenant history within the last thirty six
months
An eviction for cause within the past thirty six months for any reason
other than documented medical hardship

Applicants who have a foreclosure, mortgage defaults, reverse mortgage or short sale will be
denied, however, management will allow applicant 14 days in accordance with the Napa Park
Homes Grievance and Appeal Procedure for the applicant to provide additional information
regarding the default or foreclosure. The information will be evaluated on a case-by-case
basis.
Lawsuits
Any suit pending or not remedied which is deemed to affect financial
ability
Examples of the type of lawsuits which would fall into this category
include:
Bankruptcy That Has Not Been Discharged
Check Fraud
Embezzlement
Eviction
Welfare Fraud
Repossessions
Repossessions, excluding voluntary repossessions within the past
thirty-six months except when part of a bankruptcy, divorce or legal
separation
15 | NAPA PARK HOMES RESIDENT SELECTION CRITERIA-G-08-24-15
Tax Liens
Current tax liens
Reasons to overturn a rejection upon appeal include:
Applicant lacks credit history, since lack of a credit history does not
constitute negative credit.
Applicant can prove that a prior eviction or poor credit is the result of a
divorce or the result of the applicant having been a victim of domestic
violence and that it was determined in a court settlement that the
applicant’s spouse was solely responsible for such poor credit or
eviction and such spouse will not be living with applicant at NAPA
PARK HOMES; or,
Applicant can prove that a prior eviction or poor credit is the result of a
documented medical hardship
Proof of adherence to a payment plan for past due collections; or,
The unlawful detainer was caused by non-payment of rent and that
any future rent payment is guaranteed by third party payment.
Criminal Activity
A criminal background check will be run on all applicants 18 years and over at initial
certification and each annual recertification as condition of continued occupancy.
A criminal background check will be required for all household members aged eighteen [18] years
and older and emancipated minors. Criminal standards are set forth below.
Facts regarding behavior of one or more members of the household and prior conduct requiring
police and/or court action will be considered.
A criminal background reference check is conducted to determine if applicants and/or members
of an applicant’s household have any criminal background. During the admissions screening
process, NAPA PARK HOMES must perform the necessary criminal history background checks in
the state where the housing is located and in other states where the household members are
known to have resided;
Applicant households will be reviewed to determine that they have not had any of the following:
NAPA PARK HOMES is required to deny admission to Federally-assisted housing if:
Any household member has been evicted from Federally-assisted housing for drug-related
criminal activity, for three years from the date of eviction. If the evicted household member
who engaged in drug-related criminal activity has successfully completed a supervised drug
rehabilitation program or circumstances leading to the eviction no longer exist, NAPA PARK
HOMES may, but is not required to, admit the household.
Any household member is currently engaging in illegal drug use.
NAPA PARK HOMES determines that there is reasonable cause to believe that a household
member’s illegal use or a pattern of illegal use of a drug may interfere with the health,
safety, or right to peaceful enjoyment of the premises by other residents. (Examples of
evidence of illegal activities may include a conviction record, former landlord references,
etc.)
Any member of the household is subject to a lifetime registration requirement under a
National Sex Offender registration program. In accordance with Federal law, NAPA PARK
HOMES shall establish standards that prohibit admission to any federally assisted property
to sex offenders subject to a lifetime registration requirement under a state sex offender
registration program. During the admissions screening process, NAPA PARK HOMES must
perform the necessary criminal history background checks in the state where the housing
is located and in other states where the household members are known to have resided.
16 | NAPA PARK HOMES RESIDENT SELECTION CRITERIA-G-08-24-15
NAPA PARK HOMES determines that there is reasonable cause to believe that a household
member’s abuse or pattern of abuse of alcohol interferes with the health, safety, or right to
peaceful enjoyment of the premises by other residents.

applicant must provide an Offer Letter from employer submitted on employer’s letterhead. This
letter must include the following information:
Hire Date
Rate of Pay
Number of Hours Worked Per Week
Number of Overtime Hours Per Week
Number of Shift Differential Hours Per week
Bonuses Scheduled
Commissions Anticipated
Raises Within Next 12 Months
Tips
Falsification of Application
All information provided on the application will be verified. False, inaccurate or incomplete
information may result in disqualification of an application. Intentionally providing false
information on any part of the application is considered fraud and may result in failure of the
applicant to obtain a unit, or if discovered after an applicant becomes a resident, may result in
loss of the assigned housing unit. All income will be verified by management via third party
verification from employers and/or other sources of income.
HUD Occupancy Criteria
Meets all HUD occupancy criteria. Income is not more than 50% of median income in the
area (“Very Low Income”), for the 126 Section 8 apartments. Income and rent computations,
documentation requirements and verification procedures are explained in HUD 4350.3 Chapter 3.
Identification
In order for household background check to be performed, all household members age 18 and
above must provide one form of identification from the list below:
Birth Certificates- for household members under age 6
Driver’s License
Government Issued Photo Identification Card
Passport
State Identification Card
Visa
Income Documentation

member can show proof of 12 times the amount of monthly subsidy in a bank account and
complete our “Gift/Family Support Affidavit Form” (which must be notarized) for those
households with incomes that fall below our minimum income requirements.
The following criteria will be considered in conjunction with the Mitigating Circumstances Policy.
References from applicant’s current and previous landlords for a period of three
years will be reviewed.
All applicants must have positive prior landlord references indicating ability to care
for the property and pay rent on time, as well as the ability to peacefully cohabitate
with other residents. A history of violent or criminal behavior may be cause for
denial of application.
17 | NAPA PARK HOMES RESIDENT SELECTION CRITERIA-G-08-24-15
Keeps Agreements
Demonstrated ability and willingness to keep lease agreements, including: pay rent on time,
maintain the unit in good condition, respond to recertification requirements, cooperative
occupancy habits (noise, trash, etc), no family member uses illegal drugs. This information is
obtained from prior landlords, personal credit and criminal references.

months is conducted to determine the following:
Demonstrated ability to pay rent on time and in full;
Demonstrated ability to live peacefully with others;

will not be automatically declined under the eviction or rental history criterion described
above. However, subject to reasonable accommodations, applicants will be declined for
evictions for other causes.
In cases where applicants do not have any previous landlord, or if no previous landlord is
available, staff will request personal references from someone not related to the applicant,
such as a counselor or caseworker. However, lack of such references is not an automatic
basis for denial.
Other Allowable Screening Criteria

S.
PROCEDURES FOR REJECTING INELIGIBLE APPLICANTS
The following are reasons why applicants will be rejected.
1)
HUD Criteria. The applicant does not meet HUD’s occupancy requirements, including
unit size, unit type, income limits, etc.
2)
Lack of Adequate Information. The applicant refuses to or cannot provide all required
application information including Social Security numbers or certifications. Refusing to
sign required documents (i.e. Verification Authorization forms, Consent to Release of
information, etc.) will be grounds for rejection.
3)
Negative References. The prior landlord(s) up to three years back or other references
provide negative reports regarding keeping of lease terms, payment of rent and other
occupancy obligations, housekeeping habits, engaging in illegal activity, or
incompatibility with other residents and neighbors. These reports are verified as much
as possible and the applicant is given a fair opportunity to overcome negative reports by
explaining mitigating circumstances. These explanations must be verified. Mitigating
circumstances can include disabled-related problems when there is the potential to
overcome those problems through reasonable accommodation.
4)
Credit. All available credit references are checked without charge to the applicant.
Rejection is possible if credit reports contain substantive negative information. (If other
criteria are satisfactory, the applicant is given an opportunity to respond to negative
credit reports.) Examples of poor credit are:
a)
b)
c)
d)
e)
left prior housing owing money to landlord;
prior eviction unless for documented medical emergency;
An account in collection status exceeding $5,000.00;
bankruptcy within the last three years (36 months) for reasons other than
medical emergency, divorce, death of spouse;
civil judgments against the applicant not yet resolved.
Circumstances will be reviewed and applicant responses considered. Applicants who
have been previously evicted or are currently under eviction will be rejected.
5)
Criminal Record. Facts regarding behavior of one or more members of the household
and prior conduct requiring police and/or court action will be considered. The basis for
rejection includes but is not limited to the following:
a) Any conviction or adjudication other than acquittal for generally violent crimes
and felonies in all states, including but not limited to: criminal homicide,
manslaughter, robbery, assault, arson, etc.
b) Any conviction or adjudication other than acquittal that involved injury or
potential injury to a person or property.
c) Any conviction or adjudication other than acquittal for generally non-violent
crimes, the severity or existence of crime vary from state to state including, but
not limited to other simple assaults, forgery, fraud, embezzlement, weapons, etc.
d) Any conviction or adjudication other than acquittal for the sale, distribution or
manufacture of any controlled or illegal substance.
e) Any conviction or adjudication other than acquittal involving illegal use or
possession of any controlled or illegal substance.
f) Any current illegal user or addict of a controlled or illegal substance.
19 | NAPA PARK HOMES RESIDENT SELECTION CRITERIA-G-08-24-15
g) Any act which results in the person’s tenancy constituting a threat to the health
or safety of other individuals, result in substantial physical damage to the
property of others, or interfere with the peaceful and quiet enjoyment of the
premises.
h) Any conviction or adjudication other than acquittal, for any sexual offense.
i) Registration on any state sex offender registry.
j) Any conviction or adjudication other than acquittal, which involved bodily harm
to a child.
k) Any conviction or adjudication other than acquittal, for domestic violence, dating
violence, sexual assault or stalking.
l) Eviction for Drug Related Criminal Activity from federally assisted housing for
drug related criminal activity within the last 3 years.
m) Alcohol abuse or pattern of abuse, of alcohol interferes with the health, safety or
right to peaceful enjoyment of the premises by other residents.
Applicants have an opportunity to explain all adverse references. Individuals with such
records will not be admitted even if other eligible family members are admitted. Any
applicant or household member who has been arrested for any of the above-described
offenses will have their application suspended until the case has been legally resolved.
(6) Notification. If management rejects an applicant for any reason a rejection letter will be
sent to the applicant. This letter will state in writing the reasons and provide an
opportunity for the applicant to respond or ask for a meeting. If applicant wishes to
appeal the rejection they must do so within 14 days. If requested by applicant the
meeting will be with a staff member or agent who is not the same person who made the
original rejection determination. A follow-up written response will be sent within five
days of the rejection hearing. Rejection records will be kept at least three years.
NOTE: Applicants with no verifiable rental or credit history will be given due consideration
using personal references from three reliable sources other than relatives or close friends
(e.g. clergyman, teachers, employers, etc.)

U. UNIT TRANSFER POLICIES, INCLUDING SELECTION OF IN-PLACE RESIDENTS VERSUS
APPLICANTS FROM THE WAITING LIST WHEN VACANCIES OCCUR
1)
Available apartments will be filled alternately, for appropriate size, by outside applicants on
the wait list and applicants from within the complex who qualify for a move. Exception:
residents eligible for an accessible unit will be offered that unit when available even if the list
includes outside applicants. If no outside applicant is ready for timely move-in, the unit may
be offered to the next current eligible resident. Internal moves require a new lease and
related documentation.
2)
Residents must live at NAPA PARK HOMES for at least one year prior to placement on the
wait list for an internal move unless the move is a result of a reasonable accommodation or a
medical necessity. This is to avoid temporary move-ins to wait for a different-size unit.
20 | NAPA PARK HOMES RESIDENT SELECTION CRITERIA-G-08-24-15
3)
Internal moves may be caused by doctor-verified medical condition, reasonable
accommodations and safety. The cost of all internal moves is a resident responsibility with
the exception of internal moves as a result of reasonable accommodations. Residents
must be given a thirty-day notice of internal moves. Failure to move requires payment of the
market rent on the present unit and failure to pay such rent is a material non-compliance
with the lease.
NOTE: Residents are required to advise management immediately when family size or
other unit-needs change.
4)
Residents qualifying for the Wait List for an internal move must register the move-request in
writing with the management office, or may be notified of such qualification by management
in writing. The wait-list date is the date the family became eligible for the unit change, such
as a change in family size or other condition.
5)
Apartment transfers due to personal preferences or roommate disputes are not considered
transfer-eligible. The resident wishing a transfer must complete an application when the list
is open. The application will be placed on the outside waiting list in chronological order
based on the date and time the application is accepted.
6)
Criminal/Sex Offender Check will be required of all residents who wish to transfer to
another apartment within NAPA PARK HOMES in accordance with guidelines set forth
in HUD Notice 2012-11
Management will allow in-house transfers, in the following situations:
A unit transfer for a medical reason, including a reasonable accommodation (this
will be verified with a medical practitioner using the Napa Park Homes form);
A transfer from a unit due to renovation of the previous unit.
Napa Park Homes will first assign units to in-place residents who have a demonstrated need for
a change in housing before offering units to an applicant on the Waiting List. Requests for
transfers that are based on a need for a reasonable accommodation will be provided priority over
other requests. Transfers will be provided to persons who have a medical or other verified need
because of a disability in the chronological order received. All other transfers will be provided
after requests for reasonable accommodations and will occur in chronological order by the date
the request was received.
V. ANNUAL RECERTIFICATION/REEXAMINATION-SEX OFFENDER REQUIREMENTS
HUD RECOMMENDS THAT AT ANNUAL RECERTIFICATION OR REEXAMINATION,
OWNER /AGENTS (O/A S) ASK WHETHER THE TENANT OR ANY MEMEBR OF THE TENANT’S
HOUSEHOLD IS SUBJECT TO A STATE LIFETIME SEX OFFENDER REGISTRATION IN ANY
STATE PROGRAM IN ANY STATE. O/AS AND PHAS SHOULD VERIFY THIS INFORMATION
USING THE DRU SJODIN NATIONAL SEX OFFENDER DATABASE AND/OR OTHER OFFICIAL,
FEDERAL, STATE, AND OTHER OFFICIAL FEDERAL, STATE, AND LOCAL RESOURCES AND
DOCUMENT THIS INFORMATION IN THE SAME MANNER AS AT ADMISSION.
ALL RESIDENTS WILL BE REQUIRED TO COMPLETE AN ANNUAL RECERTIFICATION
QUESTIONNAIRE AT ANNUAL RECERTIFICATION AND ANSWER QUESTION AS TO WHETHER
THE TENANT OR ANY MEMEBR OF THE TENANT’S HOUSEHOLD IS SUBJECT TO A STATE
LIFETIME SEX OFFENDER REGISTRATION IN ANY STATE PROGRAM IN ANY STATE.

DATABASE TO DETERMINE WHETHER THE TENANT OR ANY MEMBER OF THE TENANT’S
HOUSEHOLD IS SUBJECT TO A STATE LIFETIME SEX OFFENDER REGISTRATION IN ANY
STATE PROGRAM IN ANY STATE AND DOCUMENT THIS INFORMATION IN THE SAME MANNER
AS AT ADMISSION.
21 | NAPA PARK HOMES RESIDENT SELECTION CRITERIA-G-08-24-15
W. POLICY FOR OPENING AND CLOSING THE WAITING LIST FOR THE PROPERTY
The wait list may be closed when it contains a year’s worth of applicants, based on current
turnover experience, and is re-opened when there is a three-month supply of applicants. A 30day notice will be posted giving the date and time that the waiting list will be opened. Re-opening
and closing of the wait list is posted in the office, communicated to referral groups, and publicly
advertised in accordance with the Affirmative Fair Marketing Plan for the property.
Applications are not accepted when the wait list is closed. The Wait List is kept chronologically
on a form, which states the date and time of the application, Head of Household name, unit size,
income level (i.e. ELI, VLI, LI), Need for accessible unit, Comment/Contact, Removed/Rejected
Date, Move-in Date, Preference Type. This list is a permanent record. (Note wait list may be

application was unfairly denied. Management will only reconsider your application if you have
any new facts or information that the applicant feels would have an effect on their application.
Management will notify the applicant of their final decision within fourteen [14] days of receiving
the applicant’s written notice of appeal.
Y. VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN ACT (VAWA PROTECTIONS)
The VAWA protections apply to families applying for or receiving rental assistance payments
under the Property Based Section 8 program. The law protects victims of domestic violence,
dating violence or stalking, as well as their immediate family members generally, from being
evicted or being denied housing assistance if an incident of violence that is reported and
confirmed.
The landlord may request in writing that the victim, or a family member on the victim’s behalf,
certify that the individual is a victim of abuse and that the Certification of Domestic Violence,
Dating Violence or Stalking, Form HUD 91066, or other documentation as noted on the
certification form, be completed and submitted within 14 business days, or agreed upon
extension date, to receive protection under the VAWA. Failure to provide the certification or other
supporting documentation within the specified timeframe may result in eviction or denial of
housing assistance.

THE FAIR
Housing Act and other relevant civil rights laws and statutes
