Common use of Changes in the Household Clause in Contracts

Changes in the Household. (a) Children born, adopted, and granted through a court-awarded custody agreement (excluding xxxxxx care arrangements) to a current member of the household during tenancy will automatically be added to the Lease upon prompt notice (within 10 calendar days of the occurrence) by the resident. (b) As state in Section IV of the ACOP, the addition of xxxxxx children, xxxxxx adults, kinship care children, and live-in aides to the household, require the prior written approval of the CHA. The CHA will not approve lease addition requests for adults. Exceptions will be made for legally protected relationships or extenuating circumstances determined at the sole discretion of the CHA. Any such approval is required prior to bringing the person(s) into the household. Person(s) residing in the household without CHA approval will be considered unauthorized occupants, and the entire household will be subject to lease termination. (c) Prior written approval to add a live-in aide is required and shall not be unreasonably refused. Live-in aides are required to meet all admissions screening criteria except employment. Per Section IV.E. of the ACOP, and in accordance to the Lease, a live-in aide resides in the unit for essential care and necessary supportive services to one or more elderly, near elderly residents, or a resident with a disability. A live-in aide is not required to share a bedroom with another member of the household and may be assigned his/her own bedroom. A live-in aide may not move into a unit if it would create overcrowding as defined by CHA occupancy standards. However, a resident may be transferred as reasonable accommodation to allow a Live-in aide. If the addition of the live-in aide will not overcrowd the current unit, the CHA will not transfer the resident or increase the bedroom size. A resident’s bedroom size will not be adjusted to allow the family members of a live-in aide; a live-in aide’s family members cannot cause overcrowding in the unit. Live-in aides have no rights as remaining family members regardless of the familial relationship and upon the death, eviction, departure, or abandonment of the assisted resident family member, the live-in aide must leave the unit. Failure to leave is cause for eviction. (d) The CHA shall approve or disapprove a resident’s request to allow a xxxxxx child, xxxxxx adult, kinship care child, live-in aide, or adult to be added to the lease and move into the dwelling unit within 30 business days of receipt of the completed request package by the CHA Occupancy Department. This time period can be extended if there is a delay beyond the control of the CHA or the resident. (e) Resident authorized members who move out of the dwelling unit, for any reason, shall be reported by the resident to the CHA in writing within 10 calendar days of the occurrence. The resident shall complete a Move-Out Affidavit. (f) Remaining family members: If the head of household dies, continued occupancy by remaining family members is only permissible if there is at least one family member on the Lease living in the household who can pass applicant screening and is 18 years old or over or an emancipated minor. The household must be lease compliant at the time of the request. Remaining family members must have lived in the unit as an authorized occupant on the Lease, for a minimum of three consecutive years (36 months) to become the head of household, and without any unauthorized extended absences. If the entire household has resided in public housing for less than three consecutive years, the CHA will consider the timeframe the family has lived in housing as the minimum time period for determining the rights of the remaining head of household status. (g) If the head of the household leaves the unit without housing subsidy assistance (e.g. institutionalization, forming a new household in unsubsidized housing and giving their RRC or Post 10/1/99 RRC rights to the remaining family members with written documentation, etc.), the CHA may permit the remaining family members to continue to occupy the unit if there is one or more family members who is 18 years old or over on the Lease, living in the unit for a minimum of three consecutive years (36 months), and who can pass applicant screening. The household must be in lease compliancy at the time of request. Continued occupancy by family members is not allowed when the head of household’s move from the unit was initiated under the CHA Leaseholder Housing Choice and Relocation Rights Contract 10/1/99, the CHA Relocation Rights Contract for Families with Initial Occupancy after 10/1/99, or Victims Assistance. (h) When a head of household leaves a household with children or adults with a disability who cannot assume the role of the head of household, and there is no remaining family member to assume the head of household role, the lease will be terminated. Subject to program eligibility and voucher availability, the CHA may offer either a HCV or a public housing unit to the permanent legal custodial guardian. (i) A new head of household, under the above paragraph (g), will be charged for any arrearages incurred by the former head of household. The CHA reserves the right to establish a payment plan with the new head of household. Consideration will be given to whether an eviction for arrearages would result in the separation of the family. (j) If this Lease is an extension of occupancy by the resident's household under a prior Lease or Leases with the CHA, any amounts due under the prior Lease or Leases may be charged and collected as if the amounts due occurred under this Lease.
