D.C. Mun. Regs. tit. 14, r. 14-5708
To be eligible for admission to the RAD program, an applicant's annual household income shall be within the income limits for low income families, as established by HUD.
HUD establishes low income limits based on eighty percent (80%) of the area median income, very low income limits based on fifty percent (50%) of the area median income, and extremely low income limits based on thirty percent (30%) of the area median income.
Income limits shall be applied at the time of eligibility determinations by the Client Placement Division.
Based on HUD regulations, DCHA shall ensure that actual admission of eligible low income families from the waiting lists is as follows: at least seventy- five percent (75%) shall be families with extremely low incomes at the time of commencement of occupancy.
