Checklist
Section 8 pilot checklist
What we ask for before configuring HAP contracts, split billing and recertification schedules. Gather it once; the pilot moves faster.
What to gather
Contracts
- List of HAP contracts: authority, contract number, program, start / end
- Gross rent, payment standard, tenant share and authority share per contract
- Which leases are HAP and which are market
Authority practice
- How the authority pays: per contract, per period, or lump sums
- Typical timing after the 1st; remittance detail you receive
- Recertification cadence and notice window the authority uses
- Rent-limit / payment-standard tables you apply per program
Policies
- Late-fee basis (tenant share only is the default)
- Grace period and caps for HAP leases if different
- Notice templates for recert and share changes
- Who signs amendments when the split changes
Reporting needs
- Expected-vs-received by contract and period
- Recerts due in 30 / 60 / 90 days
- Owner statements showing both payers
- Any authority- or HUD-format submissions you currently produce (these are roadmap items — tell us which)

Bring the four lists above; we configure the rest with you.
