I gave notice to move. Last day of lease is 629-2022. I been having hard time finding a place to lease on HUD section 8. I am on Section 8. The rental market is too high for low-income people. Management, owners want tenants to pay for move in fees, cleaning fees, holding unit fees. Deposit fee. They are strict on application screening fees. My rental credit is good. Never been late on payment. No evections.
The 1st credit check I was denied. Lost $50. Paid $40 for the 2 and report. Hopefully, it isn't denied. I was never denied on a screening. Its stressful searching for a place. You can't find a good home for the low-income rate.
There all in bad neighborhoods. My daughter died 1 ½ years. My mental illness is not good. I don't have any help with finding a place that has a section 8 lease unit offered and heed help Filling out Applications. I use the Bus for transportation to view the rentals. When I arrive someone else got application before me. I don't fill out the paperwork and pay fee.1st come 1st serve. Hopefully, I am approved on the 2nd application to get apartment Monday or Tuesday. It’s going to take a while for paperwork to give to Vancouver Housing Authority and Veterans for deposit and back to me to give to manager at new resident Anyways, I need some help with move in fee. Might need Help To stay in Motel. Inspection from Vancouver Housing may not be done. I have to move on the 6-29-2022
If I need to stay where I am living till inspection is approved the landlord will charge me double rent. Please send me some referrals to section 8 leased places with phone numbers and e mail. Thank you. Virginia

Hi,
My name is Carol, and I am asking for help to pay bills and also information on section 8 housing for low income without waiting list if that is even possible. I have already applied for Public Housing in ( Montgomery County) in PA. I am a 61 year old female on Social Security Disability for the past year and a half. I was laid off due to the Pandemic which started in January, (2020). I have a severe case of (COPD) which limits my physical activities. I live with my 39 year old daughter in an apartment in ROYERSFORD, PA.
She is a CNA for the Southeastern Veteran’s Center, which is State run. Shannon pays the majority of the bills, Rent, and utilities. I help with some of bills, (Car Payment) which is extremely high but I need it to take her to work. I contribute toward car insurance and food. My main debt right now, besides car payment, is my previous bank account. I have a negative balance and it keeps rising when there are transactions denied. I am really overwhelmed because I can’t close account till I pay it off. It is so frustrating because the amount is more than my ($503) car payment. I am so desperate for a section 8 housing (if it even exists and is possible) that I have been applying for part time jobs. I did get hired at Giant Food Stores but I can only work a limited amount of hours because it will effect my SSD. Please understand that I kind need financial help to help pay that bank account off so that they don’t increase the amount owed anymore. I would be very grateful if your organization can help me at this time. If I have to pay it back I can set up a payment plan.

I live in Cass County, and need to sign up for sections 8. My name is Rebecca, home address Queen City, Texas 75572. A My landlord is will to except section 8. I am disabled and have applied for my disability already. Was told by SS Office, I will get my answers by March 16th. Seems not even possible to ever get section 8.
I am going to become homeless with help. Please help me, and let me know what I need to do. So I might be able to sign up for section 8,or any other assistance possible. I greatly appreciate your help. I did sign up for community help but was told, they couldn't help. Due to my income. I am only allowed to work 20 hours a week with many limitations from doctors. I do receive food stamps, and utility assistance. I have to reapply next month for my utility assistance. Due to it lose our this month. I am grateful for any help. God Bless

Of course section 8 is possible. But of course it is under very high demand and there is a wait list. As resources in life are limited....otherwise no one would ever work or provide for themselves if the government just gave "free" or low cost everything. Anyhow, here are some tips on finding low income section 8 housing.

I was wondering if you could help me understand how the Section 8 program works. Is it even possible to get a house, or is it a myth? I am disabled and on SS Disability and applied for low income rental assistance in Sharp County, Arkansas. I lived in Texas at the time and filled out the paperwork because I wanted to move back to where I grew up.
I tried to find out what the rent limit was. I was told I would have to pay 30% of my income and there would be a utility allowance but they didn't know how much until I found a house. It was only me and I was told I would probably be able to find a 2 bedroom house, and they would go over the utility allowance, and the price range I could rent in, when my name came up and I met with the person for an orientation.
Once my name came up on the section 8 list, they let me know so I rented a YOU-Haul truck and moved all my stuff up from Texas to Arkansas and put my stuff in storage. I went in for the orientation. Got a voucher and was told that I made too much money to get a utility allowance and since there was only one person, I couldn't go over $480 a month for rent and utilities. Well, there wasn't any 1 bedroom houses for rent and 2 bedroom houses started around $500 for rent only.
I asked what the cut off limit was for a utility allowance but I never got an answer. One lady seemed offended when I was asking how things are calculated and said, "we go by what's in the system, I don't just pull the figures out of thin air."
Anyway, can you explain how the utility allowance works and how it's based on income? How does section 8 work? Is it a scam?
Also, my sister is disabled and has been trying to get approved for SSI but only has an income of $200 a month and 1 minor child. She applied for Section 8 in Independence County, Arkansas and was approved for a 2 bedroom house or apartment. Her rent limit was $435 (which was less than mine for a 1 bedroom and the town she lives in is much larger then where I applied for and only about 45 miles away) and she got a utility allowance for $107. My sister looked around but couldn't find anything in that price range. When she told the HUD lady she couldn't find anything, the lady told her to call the real estate companies to see if there were any apartments for rent. My sister called but they too were more than she was allowed.
I called the lady in charge of the HUD low income housing (Shawna Baxter in Batesville, AR) and asked why my sisters’ allowance was lower than mine and that I had been approved for a one bedroom. She told me the rent limit was based on income too. She said I could make an appointment and come in and talk to her but when I told her it was for my sister she told me if she had any questions that she would have to come in and talk to her.
Can you please educate me on how the rent limits are based on income and at what point they would go up to match the 90% of the fair market rent for that area?

Section 8 housing choice voucher. I’m in HUD subsidized housing now. I need my caregiver to now live with me. Due to health they've denied her application... So I have to move to have the care... Which I can't afford... But I have no choice... Because of their rule. Which is not Federal guidelines rules... I'm asking for HUD voucher like is here with building to take with me. So I can afford to live and have my live in: home-care... I don't understand the problem... people do it all the time. I did home-care before my job before I became disabled... They're choosing their own rules here... thank you for listening. Hopefully you'll look into section 8 HUD voucher and I qualify for a voucher.

I have 2 children 15 & 2 years old. We are homeless and have been bouncing from section 8 house to house because the homeless shelter won't accept my son and we are not abused or part of domestic violence but its freezing now and we need help with an application getting our own place. We can't stay on the floor or in the car anymore; it’s too cold for that now.

Hi, good afternoon. I am currently looking for income based housing that takes section 8. I make 500 a month on SSI. I am currently in a bad relationship and need to move out with my daughter who is 5 years old and in school. Therefore I do not want to change my location because she is settled in school. My daughter is my top priority.
I can no longer live with her father. He is an abusive person towards me. And I need to get out before something happens in front of my daughter and it’s too late, please help me with section 8 housing resources to better myself and living conditions. I live in Monmouth county NJ.

Hello, I'm disabled low income eligible and need rental assistance. Our state local programs are closed and there is a wait list. I'm on wait list for 3 apartments for 3 years now. I need to move this year.
Is there anything I can apply for to use at an apartment I find? The HUD office has nothing either. No section 8, no vouchers, no apartment. Available for physically disabled. Suggestions please ? Thank you. I'm not a senior for housing either.

Right now I have a house through section 8. This year my rent went up way too much. I have a 7 year old son, I'm on disability and trying to go to school. I can't make it on my own anymore. I feel like a complete failure and don't ask for help much. But I've now reached my breaking point and I'm losing everything. Please help.

Since you have no job as you were fired, we are not sure if section 8 HUD vouchers will help you. These are income based homes in which you need to pay some of the rent. Also, if you have no job or no money it is very irresponsible to even think about moving. Get a job first, save money for the rent and your 3 year old expenses, and get your life back on track and stable. But until then, read more on Section 8 rent vouchers.

I'm trying to find out how I go about signing up for HUD in Decatur, AL. I recently just moved back to Alabama from Texas and I'm having to start all over again. Right now I'm living in a 3 bedroom house with my mom & her 2 foster boys & my 6 kids. And right now it’s getting too crowded for all of us.

If you income is only $700 per month, that quite frankly is not enough to live on. Even if you were to somehow enroll into section 8 in Missouri, how will you buy food, pay utilities, get medical care for your disability, etc. It is impossible. Anyway, since you asked, here are details on the Missouri housing for you. http://www.needhelppayingbills.com/html ... souri.html

I am currently looking first a place because my grandmother says I can't stay with her her long. I need a place because I'm pregnant and have a 3 year old. I have no job WAS fired because I'M pregnant and getting close to my due date. I really need to find a place quick and I need help with the deposit. I have no money I haven't even bought any baby necessities. I just really need help with a deposit of a place because I have a section 8 voucher.

I WAS WONDERING IF YOU GUYS HELP WITH DEPOSIT ON SECTION 8 PROPERTIES. I WAS TRYING TO MOVE BACK TO HAMILTON COUNTY FROM BUTLER COUNTY. I MOVED HERE IN BUTLER TWO YEARS AGO AND IT BEEN THE WORSE CHOICE I MADE. I AM NOT ABLE TO KEEP A JOB BECAUSE DAYCARE DOESN'T OPEN UP EARLY ENOUGH. THE ONLY THING THAT HELPS ME AND CHILREN IS THE GOOD EDUCATION THEY OFFER. CAN YOU PLEASE HELP WITH DEPOSIT FOR MOVING BACK TO HAMILTON COUNTY SO I CAN GET A JOB AND KEEP IT LIKE I'M USE TO DO?

I have lived in Pacific Missouri (Franklin county) for about 5 years. I am disabled and receive $700.00 per month SSI
I am in need of housing. I have been homeless since 08/01/2014
I have been on St. Louis County HUD waiting list for about 7 YEARS and still waiting. I have called community action centers, charities every where I have tried to get help has not been able to help me. Here is my contact info if you can help me please let me know ASAP.

HUD only covers housing, Housing and Urban Development, they do not handle SNAP, etc. You may apply for housing programs with them; Section 8 has usually a two year or more wait time.
You need your local Department of Human Resources to get Medicaid, SNAP, TANF, etc. Look them up in the phone book. You can usually apply online for their programs but you can also get the address and go to the local office.

This is what I sent to HUD organization and haven't gotten a response yet either.
Could you please show me guidance on how I sign up for any of your programs that I qualify for? I have been trying hard to apply and get assistance under your e-snaps/homeless assistance and haven't got anywhere, and it would benefit myself and children grandchild a lot to be able to recover from our unfortunate crisis and begin to heal. You can even send me the applications directly to fill out and return.
It is so hard to find help on the internet, then when you find the help and assistance it begins to be too complicated for an individual to do anything over the internet to follow through to receive the help once you find it. Some way someone needs to make it somewhat simpler for an individual to understand and complete the paperwork it takes to receive the help they need to live. I believe that it's very hard and complicated that a lot of people probably just give-up, which I do not have that choice. Your organization (HUD) have recommended me to a few of your programs that could help me out in these trying times of my life but didn't guide me on how I would go about receiving the help that they have suggested. So please send me out some paperwork through the mail to read and applications to fill out so I can start healing my family again.
I do qualify for a few of your programs if you do send me the pamphlets on them I will chose one of them that's best for the situation I'm in and get you back the application you need to start the process of me receiving help I truly need, thank you very much.
You are much appreciated and my family will never forget what your organization has done or will do for us we believed that we were forgotten, the ones that were left behind and no one would listen to our pleas for help, thank you once again for taken your time for a family truly in need of help. Please feel free and call me, as soon as possible would be gratefully appreciated as well. I will add a copy of my current situation to remind you of what is going on in my family. A truly good American Family that requires some help and cannot find it or how to get it.

google this "wayne county wv section 8 apartments" and there are multiple site, maybe one of them will have what you need.

Good evening, I am writing to you because I need some help and I am in hope that you or some one you know can refer me to maybe able to help me. I recently received a section 8 voucher from Mingo County. I can only live in 1 of the 5 counties they gave me which are Mingo, Wayne, Logan, Mcdowell, and Wyoming. My only and biggest issue is that I currently live in the state of Massachusetts and I can't seem to find any apartments in any of these areas. I have used Craig list, Trulia, zillow, Google, apt guide and the WV HUD site. Still I can't seem to find any and all the ones I have contacted are either not taking section 8 or are in the wrong county.
Can you please help me? I would like to live in Wayne County, I have a child with mental health and the doctors have recommended this county for his medicals needs. Would you please provide me if you can with website or housing list that will take section 8 if you have one. I thank you in advance for any and all help you can provide to me. Have a bless day and again Thank You.
