NYCHA's Office of Impartial Hearings

NYCHA’s Office of Impartial Hearings reopened to the public on October 12, 2021. NYCHA will be scheduling certain termination of tenancy proceedings for hearings in accordance with NYCHA’s termination of tenancy procedures. In addition to in-person hearings, remote hearings will be offered as an option. Additionally, NYCHA worked with HRA’s Office of Civil Justice to implement the City’s Right to Counsel program, and all Section 9 termination of tenancy proceedings will go through that program before a hearing is scheduled.

Grievance and Termination of Tenancy Procedures

A grievance can be submitted when you are dissatisfied with a decision made by NYCHA, that you believe adversely affects your rights, duties or status.

OIH Office Location

NYCHA’s Office of Impartial Hearings (OIH) is located at 803 Atlantic Avenue, 1st Floor, Brooklyn, NY 11238.

The OIH moved to the Brooklyn location in June 2019 and scheduled hearings began there on July 8, 2019. The move was part of the Authority’s cost-savings initiative to consolidate central office locations. The overall consolidation initiative will save approximately $20 million annually in real estate costs.

The new location houses a variety of social services and programs that residents from across the city already access regularly, including NYCHA’s Office of Resident Economic Empowerment &amp; Sustainability (REES).

OIH hours:

Monday through Friday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
