D SIRF: The SIRF is a web-based form 

that gathers existing data detailing each 

how youth in need of mental health, 

substance use, or trauma-specific 

support services were identified because 

of an AWARE or TISS program, whether 

and to which services youth were 

referred, and resulting services received. 

Establishing identification and referral 

systems, including coordination with 

support service providers equipped to 

meet the needs of youth, is a core 

component of AWARE and TISS grant 

requirements. The SIRF will be 

completed by grantee program staff for 

up to 100 youth annually per grantee as 

part of a record review for each youth 

identified and referred to support 

services. Information about the initial 

identification, including the location 

and pathway to identification (e.g., 

individual, screening tool, staff role), is 

obtained, along with information about 

referrals and support services received 

following identification. The form also 

includes deidentified demographic 

information about the youth receiving 

the identification, referral, and followup care. SIRF data can be extracted from 

case records of school-based care 

coordinators or mental health providers, 

or other existing data sources, including 

any school staff, support service 

provider, and family members who 

make a mental health, substance use, or 

trauma-related identification and 

referral. No personal identifiers are 

requested on the SIRF. SIRF data will 

inform the Identification and Referral 

Study and Behavioral Health Equity 

Cross-Study Analysis. 

The estimated response burden to 

collect this information associated with 

the AWARE–TISS Cross-Site Evaluation 

is as follows annualized over the

Changes to the Methodology Used for 

Calculating Section 8 Income Limits 

Under the United States Housing Act 

of 1937 

AGENCY: Office of the Assistant 

Secretary for Policy Development and 

Research, HUD. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The United States Housing 

Act of 1937 provides for assisted 

housing for ‘‘low-income families’’ and 

‘‘very low-income families.’’ These 

designations are defined as percentages 

of area median family income and are 

known as income limits. Since FY 2010, 

HUD has limited the increase from year 

to year in its income limits as the higher 

of five percent or twice the percentage 

change in national median family 

income. This notice adds an express 

stipulation that the annual income limit 

increase may never exceed ten percent. 

HUD further clarifies the definition of 

national median family income for 

purposes of setting income limits.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

The United States Housing Act of 

1937 (the 1937 Act) provides for 

assisted housing for ‘‘low-income 

families’’ and ‘‘very low-income 

families.’’ Section 3(b)(2) of the 1937 

Act defines ‘‘low-income families’’ and 

‘‘very low-income families’’ as families 

whose incomes are below 80 percent 

and 50 percent, respectively, of the area 

median family income, with 

adjustments for family size. These 

income limits are referred to as ‘‘Section 

8 income limits’’ because of the 

historical and statutory links with that 

program, although the same income 

limits are also used as eligibility criteria 

for several other federal programs. The 

1937 Act specifies conditions under 

which Section 8 income limits are to be 

adjusted either on a designated area 

basis or because of family incomes or 

housing-cost-to-income relationships 

that are unusually high or low.1 Section 

8 income limits use the same area 

definitions as Section 8 Fair Market 

Rent (FMR) area definitions, which in 

turn are based on Office of Management 

and Budget (OMB) metropolitan 

statistical area definitions. 

HUD issues updated area median 

family income estimates and Section 8 

income limits annually. Since Fiscal 

Year (FY) 2010, HUD has limited the 

amount that the income limit for an area 

could increase or decrease.2 Prior to FY 

2010, income limits could not decrease 

at all and there was no limitation on 

annual increases. Under the current 

methodology, HUD does not allow 

income limits to decrease by more than 

5 percent from the prior year’s level and 

does not allow income limits to increase 

by more than the higher of 5 percent or 

twice the change in the national median 

family income. 

There are several reasons for these 

limits on increases and decreases. First, 

HUD’s calculation of area median family 

income estimates is based on survey 

data from the Census Bureau’s 

American Community Survey (ACS). 

Survey estimates of income are subject 

to measurement error and may fluctuate 

from year to year even when the true 

median income for a given area is 

unchanged. The limits on increases and 

decreases ensure that outlier estimates 

of area median family income changes 

do not cause undue administrative 

burden or negatively impact program 

participants through wildly fluctuating 

income limit levels. 

Second, several programs, most 

notably the Low-Income Housing Tax 

Credit (LIHTC), use Section 8 income 

limits to determine eligibility and rent 

levels for low-income households. By 

limiting decreases in income limits to 

no more than 5 percent, HUD helps 

ensure the financial viability of 

affordable housing properties.3 By 

limiting increases in income limits, 

HUD decreases the burden on lowincome households who may face large 

rent increases resulting from higher 

income limits. 

II. Determination of the Limit (Cap) on 

Annual Income Limit Increases 

This notice announces a change to the 

FY 2010 criteria for determining the 

maximum possible increase in income 

limits. For FY 2024 income limits and 

thereafter, HUD intends to set the 

maximum possible increase in income 

limits at the higher of five percent or 


lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1
Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 7 / Wednesday, January 10, 2024 / Notices 1585 

twice the change in national median 

family income, with an absolute cap of 

ten percent. HUD believes that this 

adjustment to the current methodology 

will align the cap rule with its intended 

purpose in high income-growth periods. 

In such periods, doubling the year-toyear change in national median family 

income produces a cap that is 

significantly higher than the upper 

range of income growth experienced by 

areas while limiting the possibility of 

overly burdensome rent increases for 

LIHTC tenants. 

Additionally, HUD is formally 

establishing the definition of ‘‘national 

median family income’’ used in the 

calculation of the cap in income limit 

increases. From FY 2010 to FY 2014 

HUD used an estimate of national 

median family income based on the 

ACS estimate of national family income 

adjusted in part with an inflation 

adjustment and in part on historical 

trends in national median family 

income. From FY 2015 to FY 2021 HUD 

used estimates of ACS national median 

income adjusted with actual and 

forecast inflation alone. For FY 2022 

and FY 2023, HUD used unadjusted 

estimates of national median family 

income from the ACS. 

For FY 2024 and thereafter, HUD 

intends to continue calculating the cap 

on income limit increases using the 

most recent unadjusted estimates of 

median family income provided by the 

Census Bureau via the ACS. Therefore, 

for FY 2024 income limits, the cap 

would be based on the change in 

national median family income from 

ACS 2021 to ACS 2022 (see the 

discussion below regarding HUD’s 

income limit release schedule). By 

continuing to remove inflation 

adjustments from its cap calculation, 

HUD is keeping the calculation in line 

with its purpose of capturing trends in 

median family income data addressing 

survey volatility rather than volatility 

introduced by accelerating or 

decelerating inflation. 

III. ACS Basis for Median Family 

Incomes and Income Limits Release 

Schedule 

HUD released FY 2023 income limits 

on May 15, 2023. HUD would ordinarily 

have based the 2023 income limits on 

ACS 2020 data. However, the Census 

Bureau did not release normal ACS 

2020 one-year data as a result of 

difficulties with the ACS data collection 

during the COVID–19 pandemic. 

Therefore, HUD elected to ‘‘skip’’ 2020 

and instead base the FY 2023 income 

limits on ACS 2021 data. HUD intends 

to preserve this two-year gap between 

the vintage of the ACS data and the 

fiscal year for which the income limits 

are published. FY 2024 income limits 

will therefore be based on ACS 2022 

data. An exception to this practice may 

occur in years in which the ACS 

implements new metropolitan statistical 

area definitions that HUD has not yet 

captured in its Fair Market Rent 

calculations. HUD believes it can 

implement this two-year gap and still 

release income limits on or around 

April 1 of each year. 

IV. Request for Comments 

While HUD invites comments on any 

aspect of this notice, HUD is 

particularly interested in receiving 

comments in response to the following 

specific questions: 

Question for comment #1: Is a cap of 

ten percent appropriate for HUD’s 

income limit calculation methodology? 

If not, is there an alternative cap that 

would be more appropriate? Would 

such a cap harm planned or in 

development LIHTC-financed properties 

(i.e., do such properties assume rent 

growth in excess of 10 percent)? 

Question for comment #2: In updating 

its income limits each year, HUD’s goal 

is to allow income limits to rise with 

prevailing income growth, thus allowing 

similar numbers of households to be 

eligible for assistance each year. Many 

HUD eligible households receive fixed 

incomes. A number of fixed income 

programs, such as social security and 

veteran disability benefits, are adjusted 

for inflation in a different way than 

HUD income limits. Have income limits 

kept pace in your community with other 

social programs that provide basic 

income for individuals and households 

who would also need housing assistance 

such as elderly, disabled, and homeless 

veterans? That is, are individuals or 

families that would have been eligible 

in previous years now no longer eligible 

because income limits have not kept 

pace in your area? Or are more eligible 

than had been the case previously? 

Question for comment #3: In its 

calculation of income limits, HUD may 

adjust income limits away from the 

legislatively defined percentages of Area 

Median Family Income for places with 

high and low housing costs relative to 

Area Median Family Income, or where 

incomes are otherwise unusually high 

or low. Currently, beyond the limit on 

increases and decreases discussed in 

this notice, HUD also implements highand low-housing cost adjustments and 

sets a floor for each State based on the 

State non-metropolitan median family 

income (for more information on the 

current methodology, see https://

www.huduser.gov/portal/datasets/il//

il23/IncomeLimitsMethodologyFY23.pdf as well as HUD’s online 

individual area income limit 

documentation tool available at https:// 

www.huduser.gov/portal/datasets/

il.html#query_2023). What other 

criteria, if any, should HUD use when 

considering whether to make such 

adjustments in addition to those in 

existing policy? For example, should 

there be a national minimum income 

limit to reflect a minimum rent needed 

to operate and maintain rental housing 

in the lowest cost housing markets? 

Should the same criteria be used in 

United States territories? 

Question for comment #4: HUD 

recognizes the tension inherent in the 

use of an income-based measurement 

for setting rents, where the costs of 

operating affordable housing rental 

properties may grow faster or slower 

than prevailing incomes, due to a 

number of factors including, for 

example, recent rises in insurance costs. 

For LIHTC property owners, in the past 

have you raised your rents in LIHTC 

units to the maximum allowable yearover-year increases? For purposes of 

HUD better understanding the context of 

your answers, please indicate the 

location of the property (e.g., ZIP code, 

city, or county) to which the answer 

applies. 

Æ If yes, why have you done so, and 

have the increases been adequate to 

operate and maintain your property? 

Æ In the years where you raised rents 

to the maximum allowable amount, did 

you see any changes in the turnover of 

your units as compared with turnover in 

years when you did not raise rents to 

the maximum allowable amount? 

Æ If no, what factors do you use in 

determining how much you raise your 

rents? In what years have HUD income 

limit changes been adequate for a LIHTC 

property to keep up with operating and 

maintenance costs, and in what years 

has it not been adequate? 

Question for comment #5: Should 

income limits consider direct measures 

of costs, such as wages or insurance, 

instead of, or in addition to, its high 

housing cost adjustment, recognizing 

that HUD may currently lack the 

statutory authority to do so? If so, which 

specific costs should HUD consider, and 

which measurements or data would you 

recommend as a reference? 

Question for comment #6: Does 

HUD’s income limits methodology help 

or hinder the use of Housing Choice 

Vouchers in LIHTC-financed properties?

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Disaster Information System (DIS) was 

used for program implementation 

activities related to the Disaster Housing 

Assistance Program (DHAP) case 

management services. DHAP is a 

Federal Emergency Management Agency 

(FEMA) pilot grant program to provide 

temporary rental subsidies and case 

management for non-HUD assisted 

individuals and families displaced by 

Hurricanes Katrina or Rita. HUD was the 

servicing agency that administers the 

DHAP program for FEMA. The program 

ended in 2011 and none of the records 

are active because the information 

would not be eligible for existing HUD 

or FEMA programs and as such would 

no longer be needed. Records are no 

longer maintained by HUD and have run 

the record retention period. The records 

were wiped from the system. The 

electronic records were destroyed in 

accordance with schedule 20 of the 

National Archives and Records 

Administration General Records 

Schedule. System no longer exists in 

IAS or CSAM.
