Under Treasury Regulations 1.42-5(b)(1)(vii), LIHTC site owners must document each low-income tenant’s income certification with documents such as federal income tax returns and W-2 forms. The regulation makes an exception for tenants receiving housing assistance payments under Section 8. The requirement is satisfied if the public housing authority provides a statement to the owner stating that the tenant’s income doesn’t exceed the income limit.
