You would have to use a section 8 voucher for what it is specific for.
It's a little complicated. The rules for section 8 set a limit to the rent that can be charged by the landlord. This depends on where the apartment is and what is provided in the way of appliances and utilities. Note. In general, if you find a three bedroom unit whose rent is within the limit for a 2 bedroom, the section 8 people won't allow you to take it. If this happens to you, ask the landlord to rent it to you as a 2-bedroom, 2-living room unit. Strangely enough, this is quite legal. Provided you find a home that is within the limit, the housing authority will "means test" you to decide how much you can afford to pay yourself; they will then pay the difference directly to the landlord. You then pay what they didn't. Warning. Take great care to pay your portion. If you don't you will lose your voucher.
In general, there is no specific dollar amount for the value of a voucher. After determining the income of a voucher holder, the voucher holder's rent (the amount he will be requred to pay out of his pocket) is determined by the actual rent (what the Landlord is charging per month) minus the amount that will be paid per month by the Housing Authority (the Housing Assistance Payment, or HAP). When a voucher holder goes to locate a rental home, a worksheet is usually printed which will specify the highest amount of actual rent that will be approved for that family. The "dollar amount" might be the amount of HAP paid per month, or the highest amount of actual rent the Voucher will assist the family in paying.
Actually, there isn't that many problems with section 8 housing. Those who were on the voucher program or public housing have much higher standard of living than those who are not assistant in the program. This is because any violation of the lease or the law while on the program can result in permanent ban from the program. Living on section 8 for some people have a certain stigma: it is most certain that they are on a low income, typically disabled or elderly, or having some type of dysfunction: a disabled family member, multiple children, etc. And one of the biggest problems is when a voucher holder allows someone who is not in the program, often a convicted felon, to reside with that family undetected.
