What
is IHBG Formula?
Funds
appropriated by Congress for the Indian Housing Block Grant Program
(IHBG) are made available to eligible grant recipients through a
formula. Regulations governing the formula can be found at 24
CFR Part 1000,
Subpart
D. On April 20, 2007, the Native American Housing Assistance and
Self Determination Final Rule was published revising the IHBG Formula.
In
brief, the formula has two components; Need and Formula Current
Assisted Stock. The Need component considers population, income,
and housing conditions. The Formula Current Assisted Stock component
reflects housing developed under the United States Housing Act (the
predecessor of the IHBG program) which is owned and/or operated
by the IHBG recipient and provides funds for ongoing operation of
the housing.
An
Indian tribe may challenge the Need portion of the IHBG formula
provided the data are gathered, evaluated, and presented in a manner
that is fair and equitable for all participating tribes. Tribes
have until March 30 of each year to submit challenges to their Needs
data in consideration for the upcoming fiscal year. Guidelines for
submitting challenges are provided in the document, "Challenging
U.S. Decennial Census Data" and the following Appendices:
HUD
has until August 1 of each fiscal year to report to recipients their
annual IHBG estimated allocation and the data used to compute the
estimated allocation. The Formula Response Form (FRF) is designated
by 24 CFR 1000.302 as the form recipients use to report data changes
to HUD. It is the recipients' responsibility to report any discrepancies
or changes in their IHBG data to HUD. Tribes have until September
15th of each year to submit corrections to Formula Current Assisted
Stock, Formula Area, Population Cap and Overlapping Formula Area
data in consideration for the upcoming fiscal year. In accordance
with §1000.315 the FRF is the only mechanism that a recipient shall
use to report changes to the number of FCAS.
