Re: Section 8 not paying security deposit

Yes, section 8 doesn't really focus on paying security deposits or first months rent. Looks like you live in New Jersey. We would suggest calling the NJ section 8 providers and tell them your dilemma and ask for advice. There are New Jersey section 8 housing vouchers and agencies. The vouchers usually just limit the amount of rent (maxed at 30%) that someone needs to pay towards their housing expenses. It is a great and effective low income housing program.
