Section 8 eligibility is governed by many different factors in terms of qualifications: the financial qualifications, for example, are that a person or family may not exceed the average median income of 40% of the families of the same size living in the community. The person may not have felony records: that are less than five years old for any kind of felony in most housing authorities; that are less than five years old that involve drug offenses and public assistance fraud; the manufacturing of methamphetamine; and sex offenders that are required to register as such in his state. The person or family may not have been evicted from a public housing unit or any rental property for which the person had a voucher, and must not owe any money to a public Housing Authority. Each Housing Authority has its own rules which were approved by HUD before implementation, which may be more strict than the federal guidelines mentioned above.
Any family can qualify for section 8 housing, even one with a single household member. However the family must meet certain financial qualifications: usually, their income must not exceed 40% of the average median income of families of the same size living in the community. The family may not consist of persons convicted of various felonies which may include, but not limited to, any felony of less than five years; any drug-related felonies; any sex offenses for which the person must register as a sex offender in his state; and any felonies involving public assistance fraud. The person must not have been evicted from any public housing unit or any other unit that was rented under the voucher program. He was not owe any public Housing Authority rent or any other money. Veterans, disabled or elderly persons, and family members with children - especially mothers with children - often take priority over any other type of family on the waiting list. However, anyone who meets the above criteria is eligible to apply and may be accepted.
