How do I apply for section 8 housing?

Where do I go to apply for section 8 housing?

  • I have 2 small children and my boyfriend works a part time job. Im looking for employment but for now we had to move out of our home because we couldnt afford the rent. Im expecting again and we only have a few months to stay with the people we're staying with right now. I've looked online but every site turns out to be a dead end so where can I go to apply for section 8? thank you in advance.

  • Answer:

    You won't get section 8 assistance within a few months. Most waiting lists are years long. Contact your local social services office.

go to your Local Department of Human Services and they should be able to help, just be prepared to wait a long, long time.... minimum is usually 5 year wait. what i would advice you guys to do is, apply for welfare, try finding a low income apartment and go BACK TO SCHOOL.Goodluck

Section 8 is a HUD program and is administered through your county Housing Authority. They may not be taking new applications. If they are open for new applicants, it takes several years to get a Sec 8 voucher. Section 8 is issued to the head of household who must be employed and you can share an apartment with related family members only. You'd better look to move to a less expensive area.
