Participant Eligibility

Each participant household's file must include documentation verifying that the participant meets SSVF Program eligibility requirements and specifies the participant's category of "occupying permanent housing." Grantees with insufficient case file documentation may be found out of compliance with SSVF Program regulations during a VA monitoring visit. Grantees must develop policies and procedures that ensure appropriate documentation is obtained and included in participants' files. VA encourages grantees to use the Program Guide to help them ensure appropriate and sufficient information is collected, documented, and maintained in participant case files to document program compliance.
