reporting data for program types other
than public housing.
HUD Response: REAC has added this
unique identifier data element to PIC
initially for public housing because PIC
already has unit numbers and address
information through the building
entrances that the units are attached to.
It will be created for other program
types based on the unit address
information provided on the Form50058 MTW Expansion that will be
geocoded, so that each unit address will
have its own unique identifier.
Comment: A commenter stated that
without a copy of the Technical
Reference Guide (TRG) it is difficult to
fully understand what will need to be
submitted by MTW Expansion PHAs
and what errors are going to be
enforced.
HUD Response: HUD is currently
working to conclude work on the first
release for MTW Expansion. As part of
this, REAC is working on the TRG and
will provide it to the software vendors
once it is completed.
Comment: A commenter noted that
previous listening sessions and
conferences had appeared to indicate
that the PIC–NG would utilize a single
Form-50058 format for all PHAs.
HUD Response: Since MTW
Expansion PHAs will be the first to use
PIC–NG and all other PHAs will not be
moved over until some point after that,
HUD is not able to move to using a
single Form-50058 at this time.
Comment: A commenter noted that
for consistency with other program
codes, the ‘‘Local, Non-Traditional
Tenant-Based’’ program code of LN
should instead be LT.
HUD Response: As mentioned in the
previous publication, HUD is utilizing
the program codes from the Form-50058
MTW with some exceptions. Since LN
is one of the codes on the MTW form,
it will be retained on the MTW
Expansion form as well.
Comment: A commenter expressed
concerns about lines for assets and
allowances of the Form-50058 MTW
Expansion that mention ‘‘annual’’ since
those items may be biennial or triennial.
HUD Response: HUD clarified this
comment with the commenter and
confirmed that the form and upgraded
PIC system, called PIC–NG, will allow
for biennial and triennial
recertifications. Line 5i, Date of Last
Annual HQS Inspection, was also
mentioned during the conversation. We
have removed the word annual from
this line’s label in response.
Comment: A commenter stated that
line 8u, Deductions and allowances not
reflected above, would be more useful if
PHAs could report information with

more flexibility in other areas of Section
8 of the form and utilize this line for
items not addressed elsewhere. Line 8x
could then be used to total lines 8e, 8n,
8p, 8s, 8t, and 8u and no change would
be needed for line 8y.
HUD Response: HUD has
incorporated these changes into the
revised draft of the form.
Comment: A commenter stated that
lines for alternate HAP to owner and
alternate prorated tenant rent appeared
to be missing from the form in Sections
11 and 12, which would allow HUD to
get similar information for alternate rent
as is collected for the standard rent
calculation.
HUD Response: HUD acknowledges
that these lines were omitted from the
form in error and has added them to the
revised draft of the form.
Comment: A commenter stated that
lines 11d through 11f are needed to
report information on tenants that have
ported into a receiving PHA’s
jurisdiction after being housed under a
tenant-based voucher in the initial
PHA’s jurisdiction.
HUD Response: HUD acknowledges
that these lines were omitted from the
form in error and has added them back
to the revised draft of the form.
Comment: A commenter stated that if
a family can participate in FSS or MTW
self-sufficiency, but not both, then both
programs should be able to share the
family services table in line 17i.
HUD Response: HUD clarified this
comment with the commenter and
stated that a household can participate
in both programs. Therefore, separate
family services tables are needed to be
able to identify which needs are being
met through FSS and which are being
met through MTW self-sufficiency.
