Public Housing - Income Determination Overview - Massachusetts

To be considered for eligibility for public housing programs, tenants must provide documented verification of all gross household income, exclusions, and deductions claimed so that monthly net household income can be determined. Monthly net household income is the baseline for calculating the monthly rent the tenant must pay for public housing.

Income limits for admission of an applicant to state-aided public housing and for participation in the Alternative Housing Voucher Program (AHVP) are set at two-year intervals. The income limits are the "low income limits" set by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development then in effect for a similarly sized household in the city or town where the local housing authority is located.

NOTES: For the Federal income limits established by Housing and Urban Development (HUD), see the HUD Income Limits page at:
http://www.huduser.org/datasets/il.html

The limits change annually, usually in February or March, so you should check then. You should also check to see if a WorkWORLD update is available at:
