Can I file a mechanics lien on a HUD job?

VirginiaMechanics Lien
Anonymous Material Supplier

I'm a material supplier - delivering to a HUD project in Virginia. The GC that I'm working with has been slow to pay. We are current now, but coming to the last delivery and expect it will take more than 90 days to be paid. I want to be prepared to file the lien, but can I file a lien on a HUD project?

Material suppliers in good standing are permitted to file liens on a HUD financed or guaranteed project. The Owner of the property is not HUD, but rather an entity of the developer (usually a single purpose LLC).
