Multiple Choice

Which item is NOT typically included in an occupancy file?

Occupancy files are built from documents that show a household’s eligibility, the landlord-tenant agreement, and the unit meets required standards. The application provides information about who qualifies and what their household looks like. HQS results confirm the unit passes safety and quality checks. The HAP contract is the formal agreement that governs the subsidy and landlord obligations. Bank loan documents, on the other hand, pertain to financing the property or borrower credit history and are not needed to administer a voucher or determine occupancy. They belong in the owner’s financing records, not the occupancy file.
