Recently, U.S. Rep. Ed Perlmutter (CO-07) and Rep. Steve Stivers (OH-15) introduced H.R. 5776, the Tenant Income Verification Relief Act, to allow tenants on a fixed income to have their income certified and/or verified once every three years rather than annually. The legislation also calls for the HUD secretary to define the term “fixed income,” which has generally included Social Security or Supplemental Security Income (SSI).
