INTERIM REEXAMINATIONS
Reporting Changes
You might experience changes to your family situation that will affect your voucher — and those changes might occur in between your regularly scheduled reexaminations. Changes that occur between reexaminations are what CHA calls “interims.”
An interim change could include:
- A change in your household income (up or down)
- Families are required to report all increases in income, including new employment, within 10 calendar days
- If you report a decrease in income, an interim re- examination may also be necessary
- A change in family composition, which includes:
- Birth, adoption or court-awarded custody/legal guardianship of a child
- Marriage, civil union or domestic partnership
- Addition of an elderly parent(s) to the household
- The need for a reasonable accommodation (e.g., addition of a live-in aide)
