A retirement plan exclusively for Housing Authorities

Employee Forms

In order to serve you better, HART’s forms are now editable. With an editable form, you can enter the required information using your computer or other device* instead of writing your responses by hand. The completed form can then be printed, signed and submitted to HART for processing.

By submitting forms that were filled in using your computer or other device, you help to reduce the errors and confusion that can sometimes occur with hand-written responses. This allows us to process your forms more quickly and efficiently, and to provide better service for you!
