Income-based housing benefit: Difference between revisions

 

 

An '''income-based housing benefit'''  is a government program which provides some type of financial or tax support for housing use to individuals who qualify on the basis of low income.  By contrast, other major housing programs in the United States provide benefits to homeowners, typically regardless of income (e.g. [[Home_mortgage_interest_deduction|home mortgage interest deduction]]), or help fund development of housing (e.g. [[Low-Income_Housing_Tax_Credit|Low-Income Housing Tax Credit]]), or help fund housing-related service providers (e.g. homelessness programs).
