Administrative Plan 7/1/2025 Page 9-3 <br />9-I.B. REQUESTING TENANCY APPROVAL [Form HUD-52517 and 24 CFR 982.302] <br />After the family is issued a voucher, the family must locate an eligible unit, with an owner or <br />landlord willing to participate in the voucher program. Once a family finds a suitable unit and the <br />owner is willing to lease the unit under the program, the owner and the family must request the <br />PHA to approve the assisted tenancy in the selected unit. <br />The owner and the family must submit two documents to the PHA: <br /> Completed Request for Tenancy Approval (RTA) – Form HUD-52517 <br /> Copy of the proposed lease, including the HUD-prescribed Tenancy Addendum – Form <br />HUD-52641-A <br />The RTA contains important information about the rental unit selected by the family, including <br />the unit address, number of bedrooms, structure type, year constructed, utilities included in the <br />rent, and the requested beginning date of the lease, necessary for the PHA to determine whether <br />to approve the assisted tenancy in this unit. <br />Owners must certify to the most recent amount of rent charged for the unit and provide an <br />explanation for any difference between the prior rent and the proposed rent. <br />Owners must certify that they are not the parent, child, grandparent, grandchild, sister or brother <br />of any member of the family, unless the PHA has granted a request for reasonable <br />accommodation for a person with disabilities who is a member of the tenant household. <br />For units constructed prior to 1978, owners must either 1) certify that the unit, common areas, <br />and exterior have been found to be free of lead-based paint by a certified inspector; or 2) attach a <br />lead-based paint disclosure statement. <br />EXHIBIT 1
