Is eligibility for a rent freeze affected by the type of Social Security benefits a tenant receives?
YES. The rent freeze in state public housing, the Massachusetts Rental Voucher (MRVP) subsidy program, and the Alternative Housing Voucher (AHVP) subsidy program only applies to tenants whose government benefits decrease as a result of work. Whether a tenant receives SSI, SSDI, or both can make a difference in a tenant’s eligibility for a rent freeze.
