Housing Unhoused Disabled Veterans Act

The Housing Unhoused Disabled Veterans Act would amend the United States Housing Act of 1937 to exclude certain disability benefits received by veterans under chapters 11 or 15 of title 38 of the U.S. Code when determining eligibility for the supported housing program under section 8(o)(19), ensuring these benefits are not counted as income for housing assistance purposes. The bill applies specifically to veterans receiving such disability benefits and affects eligibility for rental assistance and housing units constructed on Department of Veterans Affairs property. It also clarifies that the exclusion does not apply to the definition of adjusted income for other program calculations. The Secretary of Housing and Urban Development would be responsible for implementing these changes when assessing veteran eligibility for housing assistance on federal property.
