Yes.

Not necessarily.

For the Tax Credit Program ( LIHTC)

The IRS does not have any restrictions regarding felons being able to rent tax credit housing, however the IRS does permit Owner/Agents to develop and enforce their own screening criteria which could prohibit the rental to a felon. While the Tax credit program is a federal IRS program it is monitored by the State Housing Finance Agencies which may have more restrictive requirements. ( In example, the State of OK does have restrictions on rent to felons)Can_you_qualify_for_low-income_housing_if_you_have_a_felony
