Attached below is the latest GHVP-5 form which helps automatically calculate the relevant payment standards based on housing size and location.
After adding in income and utility details, it will also help calculate the GHVP payment amount, tenant rental amount and identify whether it meets program requirements for income limits.
This version reflects FY2025 HUD payment standards at the 100% level.
This form was most recently updated in April 2025 to reflect a change in state HCV policy. Due to federal funding limitations, DCA reduced their FMR rates from 110% of the payment standard to 100% of the payment standard for 2025. DBHDD has followed suit so that GHVP participants are positioned to be able to transition into an HCV voucher without creating affordability challenges from paying a higher standard than HCV.
Remember that if someone is looking for properties within the City of Atlanta limits, you can utilize this form instead for potentially higher rates: GHVP-5 for Atlanta Only. You can use whichever offer higher payment options.
