Best Answer

The basic question is "Can a convicted felon get section 8 housing?" Whether he is on probation or a college student does not matter. The answer is yes and no, depending on what the conviction is for, how old the conviction is, and whether the felon has to register as a sex offender in the state he is residing in.

Each Housing Authority has its own rules regarding selection of tenant with felony records. It largely depends on what type of felony and the age of the conviction. They may reject convicted felons altogether or they may reject the drug and violent offenders, regardless of the age of offense. Under federal law, those convicted of manufacturing methamphetamine and those who have to register as a sex offender are automatically banned from the housing choice voucher program (section 8) or any other housing assistance programs.

Are felons eligible for section 8 housing?

This depends on the felony or felonies the individual was convicted of and the age of that conviction. Each housing authority has its own right to make rules regarding the criteria for selection with regard to felony records. Normally, drug offenses are excluded as are other violent crimes, especially within the past five years of being released from prison or probation, whichever occurred later. Under federal law, anyone convicted of manufacturing methamphetamine or any sex offenses for which the individual must register as a sex offender, are automatically excluded from the voucher program or any other Housing Authority program. Some Housing Authorities will exclude drug and violent offenses regardless of the age of offense.
