IRS Revenue Procedure 2021-47: Tax Treatment and Reporting Requirements for HAF Assistance
Internal Revenue Service Revenue Procedure 2021-47 addresses the federal tax status and reporting requirements for assistance payments made to homeowners through the Homeowner Assistance Fund (HAF). The Revenue Procedure states that assistance payments made to homeowners under HAF are not considered gross income for federal tax purposes but instead qualify as disaster relief payments. Consequently, beneficiaries will not have to pay taxes on qualified assistance received through HAF.
