NAHASDA 30% Rule
NAHASDA stands for the Native American Housing Assistance and Self Determination Act which was enacted in 1996. The Native American Housing Assistance and Self Determination Act of 1996 (NAHASDA) reorganized the system of housing assistance provided to Native Americans through the Department of Housing and Urban Development by eliminating several separate programs of assistance and replacing them with a block grant program. The two programs authorized for Indian tribes under NAHASDA are the Indian Housing Block Grant (IHBG) which is a formula based grant program and Title VI Loan Guarantee which provides financing guarantees to Indian tribes for private market loans to develop affordable housing.
In short, this act/rule states, if true, that no tenant shall pay rent that is more than 30% of their adjusted annual income. Even if, at the program/project/unit level the TTP is more than 30%, NAHASDA will override.
