Per HUDs Questions and Answers Concerning the Final Rule Implementing the Housing for Older Persons Act of 1995 (HOPA)
Question 11
How frequently should a housing/community provider update its lists of occupants to be in compliance with the age verification requirements of HOPA? Are there any consequences if a housing provider fails to update its list of residents?
Answer
HOPA requires that a housing facility/community re-survey its lists of residents every two years to ensure that the 80% requirement is met. A housing community's or facility's failure to survey or re-survey its list of occupants in accordance with its age verification procedures does not demonstrate intent to housing for older persons, and could jeopardize the housing community's status as 55 or older housing.

55+ communities are guide by federal law. They do not need to "register" every two years. They are required to conduct an Age Survey every two years. However, this age survey is not submitted to anyone, the community simply needs to keep it on file to be produced in case their 55+ status is challenged.
