Income Reporting and Verification

PIEDMONT TRIAD REGIONAL COUNCIL uses HUD’s Enterprise Income Verification (EIV) System to verify income for all household members. This system is linked to Social Security, Employment Security and other systems and provides us access to income reported by these agencies. Each client is required to report all household income, as well as any changes, within 10 days of any change. This includes income from any household member (regardless of age), and may be either an increase or decrease in the amount. Failure to report income or changes in income may result in termination from the program and/or criminal prosecution for fraud. Information on Security Deposits, Late Fees, and Evictions are included in the Landlord Information packet provided upon request.
