Unless she doesn't tell the housing authority. They would run a CORI (criminal) check on him. Based on what his offenses are, they could deny it. Usually people are denied for drugs or violence.

The Section 8 housing is only for your ex and your son. Those are the only people that she signed up for and that they are aware of, right? Her criminal boyfriend is just trying to get a place to lay his head. Tell her about your concerns and hopefully she will not let him move in. Based on what his crime was it may not be safe for your son to live there. Section 8 is usually not a state thing but more a city or county thing so just google section 8 in miami, or talahassee, or whatever city u live in. But the boyfriend is not on the paperwork down at the section 8 office, and therefore he should not be living there.

I,ve worked for the housing department for many years, HUD, and I can assure you that they frown on moving in losers such as your ex girlfriends. You must protect your son, it is apparent that your girlfriend is not gonna do it, it sounds as if she has one concern and that is whats best for her! A good mom would never hook up with a guy with a crimminal record and want him to move in with her and her child. So if you find out that he is indeed moving in with her, just wait for him to get all cozy and at home then turn him int section 8, believe me they will red flag the home and send someone out to do a home inspection, they will give her a written notice with her first offense, and if she moves hime back in and breaks the contract she will be kicked to the curb! She knows the rules and regulations, and she knows she cant have her scum bag boyfriend there, this is section 8, shes not paying the rent, we the working class is, so she has no right to take advantage of our system. And the section 8 isnt for her, this house is for your son! If it were not for him she wouldnt have this kinda housing. So stand up and be a father to your son, and turn her in, your boy only has you to protect him as it is apparent she,s not gonna do it!

I don't think there are guidelines regarding a criminal record, but they are very strict on adults which were not approved living in the home and she could lose her place for that. My sister applied when she was working and separated from her husband. They got back together, she got pregnant and stopped working, he moved in and they lost their place in the middle of winter.

i think that, if a person has a rental unit under Section 8, they are required to name all of the people who will be living in the home.
You can probably do a search on Section 8 housing to find out who to contact for information on this, i'm sure.
meanwhile, you can't control who your ex wife associates with.... it's not up to you to decide who her boyfriend is.

with section 8, i kinda doubt he will legally be able to move in. its based on income though, if he is a deadbeat, and doesnt work, he probably could. call your local department of social services and just ask...i dont think a criminal record would matter with the housing, it may make you wanna get the kid from them...is it a serious offense?

I feel for you and I would hate that too... I think your hardest part is to prove that he is living there...
