HUD HCV Guidebook § 7.1

The code "VASH" has been established for use on line 2n of HUD-50058 to indicate that the family is
a participant. In accordance with the HUD-VASH Operating Requirements, the code must remain on
the form throughout the family's participation in the HUD-VASH program.27

PHAs must additionally report issuance of a HUD-VASH voucher on form HUD-50058 by entering
“VASH” in field 2n and action code “10” (issuance of voucher) in field 2a.

If a HUD-VASH family no longer requires case management and the PHA has the funding and elects
to serve them under its regular HCV program, the VASH code is no longer used on 2n. If the PHA
elects not to provide them with a regular voucher, the VASH code must continue to be used on 2n.

MTW agencies are required to use the regular form HUD-50058 for HUD-VASH families unless they
have received approval from HUD to operate their HUD-VASH program in accordance with the PHA’s
MTW agreement. HUD–VASH vouchers must be reported separately from vouchers under the
agency’s MTW Agreement.
