## Abstract

On October 21, 1999, HUD published a final rule implementing the statutory merger of the Section 8 tenant-based certificate and voucher programs. This rule makes an amendment to the October 21, 1998 final rule concerning the 40 percent of adjusted monthly income initial rent burden limit. HUD is making this change based upon its reconsideration of the statutory language and legislative history regarding this requirement.
