Submit Plan Checklist - PHA Plans

When Are the Next Five-Year (Standard or Streamlined) PHA Plans due?

• The next 5-Year Plan is due 75 days prior to the PHA's 2005 FY.

Checklist for Completion

How do you know if your plan is complete? Use the following checklist to ensure that the PHA Plan is complete and ready for submission:

	PHA Plan Checklist (MS-Word, 68 KB)
	PHA Plan Checklist (Adobe PDF, 41 KB)

Once these steps have been completed by the PHA, the plan should be ready for electronic submission to HUD.

Supporting Documentation

The supporting documents to the Plan are an essential part of the PHA Plan. The supporting documents to the PHA Plan comprise the PHA's comprehensive library of information about operations, policies and procedures of the PHA. In addition, these documents provide context to the information summarized within the PHA Plan.

Although all required supporting documents are subject to normal HUD review and audit, PHAs are not required to submit supporting documents to HUD as part of the PHA Plan, and they are not part of the Plan itself.

However, all supporting documents (along with the PHA Plan and attachments) must be available for inspection and review by the public at the principal office of the PHA during normal business hours, both during the 45-day public review period prior to the board hearing and submission to HUD and after HUD approval of the PHA Plan.

Troubleshooting problems and FAQs on electronic submission

PHAs must submit the completed template (Form HUD 50075) and required attachments electronically through the Internet to HUD using the directions provided by HUD. PHAs can find these step-by-step directions on the PHA Plans web site.

How do you name the electronic file for submission?

It is important for PHAs to name their submitted Plans and attachments correctly in order to ensure that the file is successfully transmitted to the local HUD field office. Always use lowercase letters when naming your plan. Note that Plans should be named using this same naming convention each year the plan is submitted to HUD. The PHA Plan file should be saved as: your PHA code, the letter 'v' and the version number

How do you name the attachment files?

Attachment files should be named as: your PHA code, the letter 'a' for Attachment A, 'b' for attachment B, etc., and the version number of the PHA Plan that you would like to attach the file.
