What if a change in income causes my rent portion to go down?
If your household or income change causes your rent to go down, Metro HRA will make the change after a 30-day waiting period. This waiting period is to give us time to gather new income information and notify you and the landlord of the new rent portions.
For example: If you report a change on April 15, the waiting period would last until May 15, and the rent change would be made retroactive to May 1.
