Miami dade County section 8 voucher worksheet

Posted

.. I called  the housing authority but received 2 different answers.  They advised if the landlord is responsible for refrigeration washer and dryer etc. Then the landlord will get te max of 1582.. 

I am having difficulty understanding the voucher worksheet.

Single family tenant responsible for water and utilities tenant pays 1469

Maximum subsidy 1582

Then it says this below. 

2. Adjusted income $230

3. Payment standard $1651 

(the amount generally needed to meet modernly priced dwelling based on the number of bedrooms) 

4. Estimate total tenant payment $69

5. Maximum subsidy $1582 

(line 3 -4) (maximum amount we may pay on behalf of the landlord)

6. Estimate 40% of adjusted monthly income $1651 

(the maximum amount of rent you are allowed to pay under the program estimate of 40% of the adjusted monthly income.

7. Maximum allowable gross rent including utilities $1674 

(line 5 +6) 

The house is listed for 1650 monthly.

I am aware the house will be assessed on it rental value

However, I see 4 sets of numbers.

$1469

$1582

$1651

$1674 

I think it's 1651

Section 8 pays $1582 and the tenant pays $92.

Is that right?
