Responsibilities
Collection and verification of income data involves going to potential sites and getting income documentation from tenants
The ability to establish a relationship of trust and candor with prospective program beneficiaries – i.e. tenants of multifamily buildings – is essential to effectively fulfil this function. In order to qualify an average of 350 units a year, approximately two to three times as many households have to be contacted in order to obtain data and verify eligibility
Data Collection: Incumbent works with building owners and tenants to obtain required income documentation prior to the start of any Weatherization work: this phase includes holding initial public meeting with tenants to explain the benefits and requirements of the Weatherization program, collecting data directly from tenants via in-field visits (often, follow-up visits are required outside normal business hours to find tenants at home), collecting documentation from government offices relative to verifying tenant income (i.e., Social Security, DFTA and OTDA), follow-up visits to update stale income documentation. In East Harlem and other communities, fluency in Spanish is often essential to obtain entry into homes and persuade tenants to provide personal information
Processing: Incumbent ensures the correctness of application information and documentation; inputs income documentation data into the Weatherization database; prepares database reports documenting eligibility of projected building sites for submission to the funding agencies, DHCR, Energy Research and Development Authority and the Association for Energy Affordability (AEA)
