Beginning in 2021, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), Office of Inspector General (OIG), conducted several audits to assess HUD’s anti-fraud efforts and to develop inventories of fraud risks in HUD programs.
HUD OIG is auditing the U.S. Virgin Islands (USVI). As a result of the devastation caused by hurricanes Irma and Maria during September 2017, HUD allocated almost $2 billion in Community Development Block Grant Disaster Recovery and Mitigation funds to USVI to help it recover from the hurricanes. Our objective is to determine whether USVI is adhering to applicable program requirements in the performance and management of its CDBG-DR and CDBG-MIT housing programs.

HUD OIG is initiating an audit of HUD's Project-Based Rental Assistance (PBRA) Program. The PBRA Program subsidizes the rents for nearly 2 million low-income individuals through rental assistance contracts between HUD and private property owners. Our objective is to determine whether individuals improperly received Project-Based Rental Assistance payments while holding an FHA-insured mortgage.
