§ 11-05 Moves.
RCNY § 11-05
(a)A household on whose behalf HRA is making Pathway Home payments may not move to a new residence and maintain eligibility for Pathway Home except with the approval of the Commissioner and provided that the move must be to a residence within the City of New York. The program participant must obtain such approval prior to moving to a new residence, provided that the Commissioner may consider a request for approval made after the move if a program participant is unable to obtain such approval prior to the move due to circumstances beyond the program participant's control. If the household is moving with its current host family to a new residence, the Commissioner shall grant approval for the move provided the new residence passes a safety and habitability assessment pursuant to 68 RCNY § 11-07(h). In all other situations, the Commissioner shall grant approval for a move from one residence to another residence only if the program participant shows that there is good cause for the move.
(b)If the Commissioner has approved a move to a new residence, the Commissioner shall, if applicable, recalculate the Pathway Home payments and the payments shall not change for the remainder of the time the household remains eligible for Pathway Home unless there is another move. Any Pathway Home payments made on the household's behalf shall count towards the household's one year limit in the program. (Added City Record 10/16/2018, eff. 11/15/2018)
