2. Continuum of Care

   FY 2008 Continuum of Care (CoC) Homeless Assistance Programs

   Important note: Although the NOFA has been released, the new e-snaps electronic application system is not yet available to receive applications (Exhibits 1 and 2). HUD will notify the public via the Homeless Assistance listserv (join the listserv) when the application is available, and will publish an additional Federal Register Notice that details the application deadline based on the date when the electronic application is made available to the public. CoC representatives and grantees should not attempt to enter application information into e-snaps until HUD has announced that the application is available, as this may adversely impact CoC Registration (which is still open).

6. Fair Market Rents
   Overview
   Fair Market Rents (FMRs) are primarily used to determine payment standard amounts for the Housing Choice Voucher program, to determine initial renewal rents for some expiring project-based Section 8 contracts, to determine initial rents for housing assistance payment (HAP) contracts in the Moderate Rehabilitation Single Room Occupancy program (Mod Rehab), and to serve as a rent ceiling in the HOME rental assistance program. The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) annually estimates FMRs for 530 metropolitan areas and 2,045 nonmetropolitan county FMR areas. By law the final FMRs for use in any fiscal year must be published and available for use at the start of that fiscal year, on October 1.
