Question and Answer- Third Party Verifications and 9887A Forms

Question:  During a recent PMCS training, the instructor indicated that when management is sending out third party verification forms that:

1) adult members of the household must sign the individual verification forms authorizing the owner to verify the information with the identified third party; and

2) a signed HUD Form 9887A must accompany this outgoing verification form.

Could you provide the regulatory reference for this requirement?

Answer:  This is correct.  The applicable references are Section 3-11 A (3) and Note “A” listed on the bottom footer of the Appendix 3 of HUD Handbook 4350.3, Rev-1, Change 4.
