Sec. 594.23  Approval and certification procedures.

    (a) Approval of application. HUD's acceptance of an application for 
review does not imply a commitment to provide funding. HUD will provide 
notification of whether a project will be funded in accordance with the 
criteria and procedures set out in the applicable NOFA.
    (b) Certifications. In the absence of independent evidence that 
tends to challenge in a substantial manner the certifications made by 
the applicant pursuant to Sec. 594.30, the required certifications will 
be accepted by HUD.
    However, if independent evidence is available that tends to 
challenge in a substantial manner an applicant's certification, HUD may 
require further information or assurances to be submitted in order to 
determine whether the applicant's certification is satisfactory.
