Section 8 related

[Miguel Vasquez]

Good afternoon I have a question in regards to my section 8 tenant. I was thinking of starting a rent increase for my 1 bedroom tenant voucher due it being low and well under fair market value(Based on  hud and zip code) but my tenant is in the process of having a caretaker for her disability and getting approved for a two bedroom voucher. My question will be if she gets approved will the rent go up automatically to fair market value? Or if I should wait until she receives a 2nd bedroom voucher then do the rent increase since I heard you can only do one a year.

Any help will be appreciated.
