What can a landlord charge a Section 8 tenant here?

The FMR is not a cap on what you can ask on the open market. For a Housing Choice Voucher tenant, the local housing authority sets a payment standard, normally between 90% and 110% of the FMR (or of the ZIP-level Small Area FMR where those apply). For a two-bedroom unit in Morovis Municipio that is typically $636 to $776 including utilities. You can charge more than the payment standard if the rent passes the housing authority's rent-reasonableness test and, at move-in, the tenant's share stays within 40% of their adjusted monthly income. Ask the housing authority for its current payment standard schedule.

HUD income limits for Morovis Municipio (FY2026)

Income limits decide who qualifies for Section 8 vouchers, public housing and most HUD-assisted units. The area median family income is $41,400 (FY2025: $38,900, +6.4%). Small figures under each limit show the change from FY2025.

Household size	1 person	2 people	3 people	4 people	5 people	6 people	7 people	8 people
Extremely low income (30%)	$14,500 +6.2%	$16,600 +6.4%	$18,650 +6.3%	$20,700 +6.4%	$22,400 +6.4%	$24,050 +6.4%	$25,700 +6.4%	$27,350 +6.4%
Very low income (50%)	$14,500 +6.2%	$16,600 +6.4%	$18,650 +6.3%	$20,700 +6.4%	$22,400 +6.4%	$24,050 +6.4%	$25,700 +6.4%	$27,350 +6.4%
Low income (80%)	$23,200 +6.4%	$26,500 +6.4%	$29,800 +6.4%	$33,100 +6.4%	$35,750 +6.4%	$38,400 +6.4%	$41,050 +6.3%	$43,700 +6.3%

The 30% limit is HUD's “extremely low income” limit: the higher of 30% of median income or the federal poverty guideline, but never above the 50% limit. That is why it can rise faster than 30% of median for larger households. Tax-credit (LIHTC) properties use separate Multifamily Tax Subsidy Project limits.
