Description

The Rural Housing Service (RHS), an agency within the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), paid property owners about $1 billion in FY 2011 to help more than 270,000 low-income rural tenants afford rental housing. Each year, some of RHSäó»s rental subsidy payments are improper -- that is, too high or too low. This report reviewed (1) the extent to which RHS has examined the sources and magnitude of improper rental assistance payments; (2) RHSäó»s compliance with requirements and guidance concerning improper payments; and (3) potential lessons RHS could learn from Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) efforts to identify and reduce improper rental assistance payments. Tables and figures. This is a print on demand report.
