Section 8 Housing Assistance
Payments Program—Annual
Adjustment Factors, Fiscal Year 2014
Office of Assistant Secretary for
Policy Development and Research,
HUD.
ACTION: Notice of Fiscal Year (FY) 2014
Annual Adjustment Factors (AAFs).
AGENCY:
20:58 Feb 14, 2014
Jkt 232001
The United States Housing
Act of 1937 requires that assistance
contracts signed by owners participating
in the Department’s Section 8 housing
assistance payment programs provide
annual adjustments to monthly rentals
for units covered by the contracts. This
notice announces FY 2014 AAFs for
adjustment of contract rents on
assistance contract anniversaries. The
factors are based on a formula using
residential rent and utility cost changes
from the most recent annual Bureau of
Labor Statistics Consumer Price Index
(CPI) survey. Beginning with the FY
2014 Fair Market Rents and continuing
with the FY 2014 AAFs, the Puerto Rico
CPI is used in place of the South Region
CPI for all areas in Puerto Rico. These
factors are applied at Housing
Assistance Payment (HAP) contract
anniversaries for those calendar months
commencing after the effective date of
this notice. A separate Federal Register
Notice will be published at a later date
that will identify the inflation factors
that will be used to adjust tenant-based
rental assistance funding for FY 2014.
DATES: Effective Date: February 18,
2014.

I. Applying AAFs to Various Section 8
Programs
AAFs established by this Notice are
used to adjust contract rents for units
assisted in certain Section 8 housing
assistance payment programs during the
initial (i.e., pre-renewal) term of the
HAP contract and for all units in the
Project-Based Certificate program. There
are three categories of Section 8
programs that use the AAFs:
Category 1: The Section 8 New
Construction, Substantial
Rehabilitation, and Moderate
Rehabilitation programs;
Category 2: The Section 8 Loan
Management (LM) and Property
Disposition (PD) programs; and
Category 3: The Section 8 ProjectBased Certificate (PBC) program.
Each Section 8 program category uses
the AAFs differently. The specific
application of the AAFs is determined
by the law, the HAP contract, and
appropriate program regulations or
requirements.
AAFs are not used in the following
cases:
Renewal Rents. With the exception of
the Project-Based Certificate program,
AAFs are not used to determine renewal
rents after expiration of the original
