I am a landlord using section 8. Total rent is $1200. Section 8 pays $800 of the rent. My tenant pays $400. Section 8 is unaware of the tenant's portion of the rent. We have a second contract that specifies this "secret" payment which both of us willingly signed. If section 8 finds out about our second contract what can happen to me? Will charges be filed against me and I'll have a criminal record? If I come clean to section 8 and admit i made a mistake will that help?
