CHAPTER IX--OFFICE OF ASSISTANT SECRETARY FOR PUBLIC AND INDIAN HOUSING, 
 
PART 983_PROJECT-BASED VOUCHER (PBV) PROGRAM--Table of Contents
 
                           Subpart F_Occupancy
 
Sec.  983.260  Family right to move.

    (a) The family may terminate the assisted lease at any time after 
the first year of occupancy. The family must give the owner advance 
written notice of intent to vacate (with a copy to the PHA) in 
accordance with the lease.
    (b) If the family has elected to terminate the lease in this manner, 
the PHA must offer the family the opportunity for continued tenant-based 
rental assistance, in the form of either assistance under the voucher 
program or other comparable tenant-based rental assistance.
    (c) Before providing notice to terminate the lease under paragraph 
(a) of this section, a family must contact the PHA to request comparable 
tenant-based rental assistance if the family wishes to move with 
continued assistance. If voucher or other comparable tenant-based rental 
assistance is not immediately available upon termination of the family's 
lease of a PBV unit, the PHA must give the family priority to receive 
the next available opportunity for continued tenant-based rental 
assistance.
    (d) If the family terminates the assisted lease before the end of 
one year, the family relinquishes the opportunity for continued tenant-
based assistance.
