§ 10-07 Calculation of CityFHEPS Rental Assistance Payment Amount – Rooms.
   (a)   Where the CityFHEPS unit is a room, the household's base program participant contribution shall be the greater of the household's actual PA shelter allowance at the time of approval or $50 and, except as provided in 68 RCNY § 10-07(c) with respect to the household's first four months in the CityFHEPS rental assistance program, the monthly CityFHEPS rental assistance payment amount will equal the actual monthly rent for the CityFHEPS unit, up to $800, minus such base program participant contribution. 
   (b)   Except as provided in 68 RCNY § 10-09, the CityFHEPS rental assistance payments will not change until renewal, regardless of changes in household composition, income, the maximum monthly rents, or the actual rent for the CityFHEPS unit. 
   (c)   Upon approval of a household for CityFHEPS rental assistance to be applied to a room, HRA will make the following payments to the landlord: 
      (1)   Where the household is remaining in their residence, HRA will pay in the usual course the first month's rent minus any PA shelter allowance. 
      (2)   Where the household is moving to a new residence, HRA will pay the first four months' rent in full, unless the household is receiving a PA shelter allowance, in which case HRA will pay the first month's rent in full plus the CityFHEPS rental assistance payments for the next three months. Notwithstanding the foregoing, HRA will accommodate any request by the landlord to receive only the first month's rent upfront. 
   (d)   After making the payments described in 68 RCNY § 10-07(c), HRA will pay the CityFHEPS rental assistance payments directly to the landlord each month as long as the household remains eligible and funding for the program remains available. 
   (e)   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this section, a CityFHEPS unit may not be a single room that is part of a larger unit where such unit is located outside of New York City.
