Low Income?

Question

Where do I go apply for low income? Please help my dad is moving down south next year and I need to apply for low income quick.

Answer 1

Contact the department of economic security in your city/county.

Answer 2

There are several programs available to low income renters. The most time consuming of which is to go through your local housing authority. Wait lists for approval in some states is over a year. Check with locator services in your area (they are a free service to you) and try to find a tax credit (Section 42) property instead of going through a governmental service. These types of properties offer a lower rent to people who fall within a guidline of annual income levels. They tend to be nicer properties with better amenities. All properties by law have to accept Section 8 but properties have qualification levels that sometimes make applications harder to get approved when income levels and housing vouchers are not a high enough monetarily! Hope that helps!

Answer 3

If you need a low income loan go to a local loan officer or to your bank or financial institution for free guidance. You should ask about programs offered both by the institution and state funded programs that are available to your income bracket. Good luck!

Answer 4

Department of Fair Housing; HUD; your local city hall; your county office; newspapers.

Section 8 is set up for low income tenants, and sometimes they put you on a waiting list. I would contact all of the above organizations and get his name of several list.
