Abstract: The proposed Form 52671-E will be completed by property owners who have project-based rental assistance contracts with HUD, who wish to receive a supplemental payment to offset operating cost increases to prevent, prepare, and respond to the effects of COVID-19. Owners of Section 8 Housing Assistance Payment contracts, Section 202 and Section 811 Project Rental Assistance contract, Section 202/162 Project Assistance contracts, and Section 202 Senior Preservation Rental Assistance contacts.

Emergency Justfication: This emergency processing is essential to allow property owners to immediately begin preparing and submitting requests for supplemental payments to help address property cost increases related to COVID-19. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) (Pub. L. 116-136) provided an additional $1 billion under the heading Project-Based Rental Assistance (PBRA) for Section 8 properties, $50 million under the heading Housing for the Elderly (Section 202), and $15 million under the heading Housing for Persons with Disabilities (Section 811) to “prevent, prepare for, and respond to coronavirus, including to provide additional funds to maintain normal operations and take other necessary actions during the period that the program is impacted by coronavirus.” A portion of these appropriations are being provided via a special payment process that supplements amounts currently provided under existing Section 8, Section 202, and Section 811 rental assistance contracts administered by the Office of Multifamily Housing. To facilitate provision of funds, HUD created a new form in the monthly payment voucher series, labeled HUD Form 52671-E, which was assigned OMB collection number 2502-0619 in July 2020. HUD completed two funding request cycles in August and December 2020 that successfully utilized the new form.
