On April 16, 2024, the Department published Notice PIH 2024-11 describing new reporting requirements for planned uses of MTW Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) reserves in the Voucher Management System (VMS). The Notice applies to all MTW agencies administering the HCV program. As a result, the MTW Office provided training to all MTW PHAs on the new VMS reporting requirement on June 10, 2024. As a part of this training, the MTW Office reviewed the Notice, the HCV utilization methodology formula for MTW PHAs, and how and when MTW agencies must report on any commitments and obligations in VMS.
Below are links for the recording of the webinar and the webinar materials.
MTW HCV Utilization Dashboard
The MTW HCV Utilization Dashboard was created for the purpose of providing the public with a resource to understand how MTW PHAs are using their HCV funds. The dashboard is a snapshot of the MTW PHAs’ reported housing assistance payments, annual HCV budget authority, HCV reserves, and the details of how MTW PHAs intend to use HCV reserves in their local communities. Also, below the dashboard are resources to help end-users navigate and better understand the terminology used in the dashboard.
The MTW HCV Utilization Dashboard is accessible internally to HUD employees and externally to the public. The public-facing dashboard is embedded below.
MTW HCV Utilization Dashboard User Guide and Data Dictionary
The MTW HCV Utilization Dashboard Guide and Data Dictionary provides an explanation of the terms, tables, and charts available in the dashboard. Additionally, it explains how to access, utilize, and drill through to all the pages within the dashboard.
