HUD HCV Guidebook § 11.2
HUD-52675 Debts Owed to PHAs and Terminations (HUD HCV Guidebook)
Operative Text
All adult household members must72 sign the HUD-52675. The form is only required to be signed by each adult one time. The form notifies the adults that their debt and terminations information will be shared with other PHAs and will be accessible by HUD staff, PHA staff, and contractors. Prior to admission to the program, the PHA must search for each adult family member in the EIV Debts Owed to PHAs and Terminations database. If any information on debts or terminations is returned by the search, the PHA will determine if the offenses violate their admissions policies.
Under HUD Housing Choice Voucher Guidebook § 11.2, every adult member of a household applying for or participating in the Housing Choice Voucher program is required to sign form HUD-52675, which only needs to be signed once. The form informs adults that their debt and termination history will be shared across Public Housing Authorities (PHAs) and accessible by HUD staff, PHA staff, and contractors. Before a family is admitted to the program, the PHA must check each adult member against the EIV Debts Owed to PHAs and Terminations database, and any results are evaluated against the PHA's own admissions policies.
Plain English — not legal advice.
As a Housing Choice Voucher landlord or property manager, understanding § 11.2 helps clarify why PHAs conduct pre-admission screening. Compliant PHAs collect a signed HUD-52675 from every adult household member before admission and run each adult through the EIV Debts Owed to PHAs and Terminations database. The outcome of that database search — and how it is weighed against the PHA's admissions policies — can affect whether a prospective voucher holder is approved, which in turn may affect unit availability timelines.

Under HUD Housing Choice Voucher Guidebook § 11.2, adult applicants have the right to know that their debt and termination history will be checked in the EIV database before they are admitted to the program, and that this information may be shared with other PHAs. If a PHA finds relevant records, it applies its own admissions policies to decide whether those records affect eligibility — meaning the outcome can vary by PHA. Adults who believe a database record is inaccurate or that a denial was improperly handled may explore options such as requesting an informal hearing, contacting a local tenant-rights organization, or reaching out to HUD directly.
