7.3.15 When a member must repay HPAS
1.  A member must repay the HPAS payment they received if any of the following occurs.
    a.                                                                                  An eligible person does not occupy the home within the specified time under section 7.3.13.
    b.                                                                                  The purchase of the home does not go ahead for any reason.
    Note: A member can reapply for HPAS in the future once the repayment is made.
2.  Despite subsection 1, the following apply.
    a.                                                                                  If Service reasons prevent an eligible person from occupying the home within the specified time, the member does not have to repay the amount.
    b.                                                                                  If Service reasons prevent the purchase from going ahead, the CDF may decide that the member should be reimbursed their reasonable and unavoidable costs.
