Operative Text

HUD HCV Guidebook § 5.2
There is no requirement that PHAs conduct an in-person interview as a part of the annual reexamination
process. Some PHAs choose to complete some or all of their reexaminations via mail, while others ask some
or all tenants to appear in person.

PHAs are required28 to conduct reexaminations in alternative formats as reasonable accommodations for
individuals with disabilities who may be unable to attend a face-to-face interview because of their disability.
PHAs may also need to provide other types of reasonable accommodations for persons with disabilities
throughout the reexamination process.
