HACC

Each unit under a Housing Assistance Payment (HAP) contract must undergo a biennial inspection, which must occur no more than 24 months after the most recent inspection. If the inspection qualifies, the responsible party may complete the repairs and submit a self-certification form, indicating the repairs have been made. In these cases, no follow-up inspection is required. If eligible, the self-certification form will be included with the deficiency letter and can also be accessed at www.results.mccright.com.

This form must be submitted to McCright and Associates (doing business as Quality Control Inspection Solutions) within 21 days of the original failed inspection. If a unit is not eligible for self-certification, McCright and Associates will conduct a follow-up inspection either 21 days or 24 hours after the failed inspection, depending on the type of deficiency.

HACC will schedule a special inspection if the owner, tenant, or another source reports HQS violations. Before a special inspection can be scheduled, the reporting party must submit a written notice to the other party detailing the deficiencies and providing a reasonable timeframe for repairs—typically seven days from notification.

If the repair timeframe passes and the issues remain unresolved, HACC will schedule the special inspection. During a special inspection, only the reported deficiencies are typically inspected. However, if the inspector observes additional HQS violations, those will also be documented, and the responsible party will be required to make the necessary repairs. If a biennial inspection is scheduled or due within 90 days of the special inspection date, HACC may choose to conduct a full biennial inspection instead.
