Income, rent, and payment standards

In the Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) program, payment standards are used to calculate the housing assistance payment (HAP) that the Public Housing Agency (PHA) pays to the owner on behalf of the family leasing the unit. Payment Standards are the maximum monthly assistance payment for a family receiving assistance in the voucher program (before deducting the total tenant payment by the family).
