Waitlist and Eligibility Information
Please be advised that all waitlists are currently closed and we are accepting no additional Section 8 (HCV) applications at this time. The current HCV waitlist is extensive. Interviewing priority is based on the number each of those individuals received from RHA during a lottery held in 2012. On average 10-15 new vouchers become available each year. Given the rate of availability, adding more applications to the waitlist at this time is not feasible. If you are one of the people currently with a lottery number, the best thing to do for now is to make sure all your contact information is up to date ensuring that there will be no problems contacting you when your lottery number comes up. For further detailed information you may download the most recent RHA Communities Waitlist & Payment Standards information sheet.
