Waiting List:
Applicants will be placed on an Authority-wide wait list based on bedroom size, as well as date and time of application.
Screening & Verification:
When you are nearing the top of the list, the PHA will begin the screening process by calling the client to verify that the preferences selected by them are correct. Then, they begin by looking at household income to see if it falls within HUD’s income limits. Limits, updated annually, are based on the area median income.
After reviewing documentation of family composition, income and assets, the PHA will look at landlord references, court records, & police records (3 year look back).
They may also request character references or conduct home visits.
Selection:
When an appropriate unit becomes available, you will be notified.
