HOUSING
Study of income matching program
Office of Public and Indian Housing
The Quality Control (QC) for Rental Assistance
Subsidy Determinations system is the error-measurement component of
HUD’s effort to reduce
subsidy overpayments. The QC process involves drawing a national sample
of all public housing and Section 8 tenant files every 2 years. Currently,
the QC income and rent determinations are compared with the program-sponsor
figures and Internal Revenue Service/Social Security Administration income
matches.
Econometrica is working with HUD to expand the QC program by comparing
public and assisted-housing-related employment and income data with the
Department of Health and Human Service’s (HHS) National Directory
of New Hires database. This HHS database provides data on all newly hired
employees, quarterly wage reports, and unemployment insurance claims
filed in the United States.
