* § 620. Vouchers statewide. Notwithstanding section six hundred ten
of this article, any voucher issued pursuant to this article may be used
for housing anywhere in the state. The commissioner shall inform voucher
holders that a voucher may be used anywhere in the state and, to the
extent practicable, the commissioner shall assist voucher holders in
finding housing in the area of their choice. Provided further, however,
that a voucher must be used in the county in which it was issued, or
within the city of New York, if the voucher was issued within the city
of New York, for no less than one year before it can be used in a
different jurisdiction, unless the issuing housing access voucher local
administrator grants a waiver, or the voucher holder, or a family member
thereof, is or has been the victim of domestic violence, dating
violence, sexual assault, or stalking.
