Is it against the law to live there? Our lease says if our income changes we have to tell them immediately.. so when we do tell them will they kick us out?

Yes, you do have to report your change in income to your apartment management.
Housing regulations for "low income" housing is mandated and monitored by the state. They won't automatically kick you out, but they could at the end of your lease. Another option is that they could raise your rent.
Some people would start screaming "unfair", but what about all the people out there that are legitimately low-income living in shelters because there aren't any openings available? If you have tripled your income, you can obviously afford more... and you should.

No, chances are that you can continue to live there however if your income did go up you do indeed have to inform them. What will happen is they will recalculate what your rent will be based on your current income. Generally, there is a cap on how much they can charge and regardless of your income it won't go over that amount. It might be mentioned in your lease as to what the amount is. Otherwise, you can just ask the manager what that amount is.
Good luck.

Yes, because the place is for LOW INCOME families.
If you are no longer LOW INCOME, then get out and let a family that IS low income get a place to stay.
