Abstract: In accordance with section 3374 of title 42, United States Code, DoD Directive 4165.50E, “Homeowners Assistance Program (HAP)” and the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 (ARRA), the Department of Defense will provide funds to help military families and DoD civilians who recently sold their homes at a loss. The program will assist families forced to relocate due to base closures or normal assignment rotations. But, the most important aspect is that priority access to the funds will go to survivors of those killed during deployment, and those who were wounded, ill or injured during deployment. Eligible homeowners use the DD Form 1607, “Application for Homeowners Assistance,” to apply for the Basic and Expanded HAP programs.
