Required Transition for HUD’s Voice Response System (VRS) Users to eLOCCS

Required Transition for HUD’s Voice Response System (VRS) Users to eLOCCS

Several owners of HUD properties are also recipients of a variety of HUD grants (for service coordinators, etc.) As Grantees, these owners have historically utilized the Voice Response System (VRS) to access their available grant funds from HUD’s Line Of Credit Control System (LOCCS). However, HUD is discontinuing the use of the VRS system and is requiring these Grantees to transition to a new online request system called eLOCCS. Once they transition, the Owners will utilize eLOCCS to request their future disbursement of grant funds. The deadline to transition from VRS to eLOCCS is March 31, 2015.

To assist grantees in completing this transition from VRS to eLOCCS, HUD’s Office of the Chief Financial Officer (OCFO) will be hosting conference calls Monday through Thursday beginning on January 12, 2015 and ending February 26, 2015. The calls will be scheduled from 11:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. and again at 1:00 p.m. – 2:00 p.m. EST to answer any questions Field Offices or Grantees have about this conversion process. Grantees may attend as many sessions as they choose or feel would be helpful.

If this transition affects you, please review the chart below and if you have not completed the conversion, you are encouraged to participate in one of the calls. During the call, the facilitators will walk participants through the registration process and answer any questions.
