Book Description
This book is intended for professionals who are beginning the process of learning about the federal low-income housing tax credit ("Housing Credit," also known as LIHTCs). Even the most capable student cannot obtain a working knowledge by reading one, or even several publications on the subject. The rules and practices are too complex, particularly for compliance. But every journey starts somewhere, and this book will help with your first application/allocation/closing/property--whichever role brings you to this industry.

The Housing Benefit (Amendment) Regulations 2010 (S.I. no. 2010/2835), the Rent Officers (Housing Benefit Functions) Amendment Order 2010 (S.I. no. 2010/2836)
Author: Great Britain: Social Security Advisory Committee
Publisher: The Stationery Office
ISBN: 9780108509551
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 176
Book Description
In the June 2010 budget, the Government set out a range of proposals aimed at curbing Housing Benefit expenditure that will be introduced between 2011 and 2013. The measures were referred to the Social Security Advisory Committee and this report outlines their recommendations and the Government's response to those recommendations. Principally these included: the removal of the five bedroom Local Housing Allowance rate so the maximum level is for a four bedroom property; the introduction of absolute caps to the Local Housing Allowance; the removal of £15 weekly Housing Benefit excess; include an additional bedroom with the size criteria where there is a proven need for overnight care that is provided by a non-resident carer; and setting Local Housing Allowance rates at the 30th percentile of rents in each Broad Rental Market Area. The Committee raised a number of concerns about the scale and impact of the changes and recommended that the Government should not go ahead with the package of amendments proposed. Among the Committee's recommendations were that the introduction of the CAP be deferred until October 2011; that initially a full Equality Impact Assessment be carried out and that a transition period be incorporated. The Government however feels that the amendments are the first steps in creating a more balanced affordable system and has decided to proceed.

Universal Credit Implementation: Monitoring DWP's Performance in 1012-13 - HC 1209
Author: Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Work and Pensions Committee
Publisher: The Stationery Office
ISBN: 0215070763
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 40
Book Description
There remains worrying uncertainty about the new Universal Credit (UC) IT system. This includes how it will work, how much it will cost, and who will develop it. National roll-out of UC was due to begin in October 2013. But problems with IT systems meant that major changes to the implementation timetable were made in July and then again in December 2013. Currently, UC claims are still limited to 10 Pathfinder Jobcentres. New claims are not expected to be extended to the whole of Great Britain until 2016; and the bulk of existing claimants will not move over to UC until 2016-17. Only 4,280 people were claiming Universal Credit by December 2013 and the majority of these claims were of the simplest nature. By comparison, in the same month, 1.22 million people were claiming Jobseekers Allowance. The DWP is developing a new 'end-state solution' for UC IT which will eventually replace the IT system currently in use in the UC Pathfinders. This is costing £25-32 million to develop up to November 2014, with no indication of how much more it will cost in the long-term. The Government has hampered the Committee's scrutiny of UC implementation by not providing accurate, timely and detailed information. And there is a lack of detail on how support for vulnerable people being provided in partnership with local authorities, housing providers and the voluntary sector will operate. Delays to UC implementation mean that local authorities will now administer housing benefit for much longer than anticipated.

Changes to housing benefit announced in the June 2010 budget
Author: Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Work and Pensions Committee

ISBN: 9780215555731
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 216
Book Description
The Work and Pensions Committee report that there is still a level of uncertainty around the impact of the proposed changes to Housing Benefit and their cumulative effect on households. The report examines the wide-ranging reforms to the Housing Benefit system proposed by the Government, and in particular for claimants in the private rented sector, in receipt of Local Housing Allowance. The Committee accepts the Government's desire to slow the sharp rise in Housing Benefit costs, particularly in the private rented sector, and thereby to influence the private rental market. However, it expresses some concerns about the availability of private rented accommodation in certain localities, which tenants are likely to be able to secure at the new Housing Benefit levels.
