Do I Qualify?

You may qualify for public housing if you:

 

  • Meet income limits

  • Pass a background screening

  • Can comply with lease requirements

  • Are a U.S. citizen or eligible non-citizen

Federal Regulations require the denial of public housing for the  following criminal activities:

  • Lifetime Sex Offenders: Applicants subject to a lifetime registration requirement under a state sex offender registration program are permanently banned.

  • Methamphetamine Production: Anyone convicted of manufacturing or producing methamphetamine on the premises of federally assisted housing is permanently prohibited.

  • Eviction for Drug Activity: Public Housing Agencies (PHAs) must deny admission for three years from the date of eviction if a household member was evicted from federally assisted housing for drug-related criminal activity, unless the member has completed a rehabilitation program.

  • Illegal Drug Use and Alcohol Abuse: PHAs must prohibit admission if a household member is currently engaging in illegal drug use or if the PHA has reasonable cause to believe a member's abuse of alcohol interferes with the health, safety, or peaceful enjoyment of other residents.

*** Federal law requires all public housing authorities to implement a criminal background screening policy. As a result, additional eligibility criteria beyond those listed above may apply.
