§ 7-03 Renewals.
RCNY § 7-03
(a)Subject to the availability of funding, a household in receipt of LINC VI rental assistance will receive four one-year renewals of such assistance if it meets the following continued eligibility requirements: (1) The household's total gross income does not exceed 200 percent of the federal poverty level as established annually by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services; (2) Where such activities are made available to the household, at least one member of the household must be continually engaged in ongoing case management activities designed to assist the household member in obtaining, maintaining and/or enhancing employment or to secure any benefits for which such member or household is eligible; and (3) All members of the household eligible for Public Assistance must receive Public Assistance.
(b)HRA will determine a household's eligibility for renewal of LINC VI rental assistance at the end of each year of the household's participation in the program, subject to the availability of funding. Before the start of each one-year renewal, HRA will recalculate the household's monthly rental assistance amount pursuant to 68 RCNY § 7-04. Except as provided in 68 RCNY § 7-05, the monthly rental assistance amount will not change during the one-year renewal period.
(c)HRA in its discretion may waive any of the requirements set forth in 68 RCNY § 7-03(a) on a case-by-case basis if the household's failure to meet the requirement was due to circumstances beyond the household's control, or where non-renewal is likely to result in the household's entry into shelter.
