We performed a review of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development’s (HUD) oversight of public housing agencies’ unrestricted and restricted Section 8 administrative fee reserves. We initiated this review because in our audits of two housing authorities, neither agency was able to clearly account for its administrative fee reserve funds and demonstrate that they were used appropriately.
Due to the evolving situation concerning the coronavirus (COVID-19), the HUD OIG mail operations are suspended and we strongly encourage that you file all inquiries and/or complaints electronically to Whistleblower Report Form, Hotline Complaint Form or FOIA Requests.
