Whether a tenant is disabled does not have a bearing on whether he can be evicted. If a PHA has the right to evict a tenant then it can evict such person regardless of disability.

Do tenant have to be evicted from pha because of illegal act of guest?

The eviction of a tenant from a Public Housing Authority (PHA) is typically based on the actions of the tenant themselves, not their guests. If a guest engages in illegal activities, it may be grounds for the tenant to face consequences, such as warnings or potentially termination of their lease, depending on the severity of the situation. However, the specific policies and procedures regarding eviction in relation to illegal acts of guests may vary between different PHAs.

Can an occasional caregiver spend the night in the section 8 tenants home if the tenant is away?

Basically speaking, the section 8 program does not prohibit overnight visiting, whether or not the tenant is home, and no matter what role the overnight guests has with the tenant. The basic rule is that a tenant may not have anyone staying with him other than anyone who has been approved by the housing authority and the landlord, who usually will have the rules that coincide in with the Housing Authority's voucher program. Staying with the tenant means for over 14 consecutive days, or over the number of days the landlord will allow overnight guests to stay, whichever is less. Furthermore, caregivers must be approved by Housing Authority to live with the tenant, and HUD has specific rules that Housing Authorities must follow in approving caregivers. The potential caregiver must meet the same guidelines as the Tenant, save the income requirements, including a criminal background check.
