Section 8 is the biggest lie ever told. The government wants your mind and your first born child. Try Section 9. It is awesome.
Yes, as a homeowner, you can still apply for Section 8 assistance to help with mortgage payments. However, the program is typically designed for low-income renters, so eligibility criteria may vary for homeowners. It's best to contact the local public housing agency for more information on applying for Section 8 assistance as a homeowner.
Sure. It depends on the nature and cause of the eviction, and how forgiving your new landlord-to-be is about such things.
Yes people who are pregnant should apply especially if your family not helping and you still live with your family
That's his choice, but know that the eviction can still show in court records.
Once an eviction proceeding has been initiated (the case has been filed by the clerk), it becomes a matter of public record. So even if you leave the premises before the eviction concludes or the writ is served, it can still be found.
Yes.
Yes, but if you get married, then the Housing Authority will add your new spouse's income as part of the total family income for that household, which could render you ineligible for the program if that income is too much.
No. An eviction and judgment should show up on your credit report for only 7 years. If a 14-year old eviction is still on your credit, contact the appropriate credit bureaus for dismissal of the judgment. Note that the court files are permanent, and the landlord may still find the eviction that way, depending on how he screens tenants.
You can still apply for Section 8 and be placed on a waiting list by contacting the Newark Housing Authority at 973-430-2430 or www.newarkha.org.
"How long do you have till an eviction is off of your credit?" i am looking for an apartment but i have an eviction that's about 9 years old. the question on the aplication is have i ever been evicted? do i say yes or no? how do i find out if its still there?
This depends upon the reason for the eviction, as the process is normally faster when it's an eviction for nonpayment of rent. An eviction process for this type of eviction is about three weeks from the date the eviction is filed, keeping in mind that before the eviction can get filed the landlord must post a three day notice on the door or deliver it otherwise to the tenant. If the eviction is for other reasons than the process can be longer but the tenant will still have to pay rent, more likely to the clerk's office instead of the landlord (the landlord will eventually get that money -14% in fees for the clerk).
If the minor child's state of residency allows for emancipation, and the minor has sought and won emancipation, then yes, they would be considered an adult in the eyes of the law and could apply for section 8. However, if the minor is not emancipated, they're still under the lawful responsibility of a parent of guardian until 12:00 midnight of their 18th birthday.
