What you are referring to is payment standards. A Housing Authority sets payment standards raging from 90 to 110 percent of the fair market value for the bedroom size that has been approved for the household. Since I'm not from Chicago I can't specify. But in all likelihood the payment standard is going to be the lowest allowable percent (90%). Keep in mind that the Fair Market Rent, or FMR, factors in a reasonable utility allowance in its figures. So let's say that the FMR in Chicago is $1,200 for a 1-bedroom dwelling. 90% of that is going to be $1080. This is the payment standard. The housing assistance payment you can expect the housing authority to pay is the payment standard minus your total tenant payment, which is one-third of your total adjusted monthly income (that is, monthly income minus allowable deductions, such as for $400 one elderly or disabled adult, plus $480 for each child in the household). After the utility allowance is deducted from your Total Tenant Payment, or TTP, you can expect to pay that amount each month out of your pocket.

What if you already have section 8 with kids from wife and separate Can i lose my voucher?

You will continue to be eligible for the voucher program if you continue to meet the criteria of the housing authority that issued the voucher. Your bedroom size for which you are eligible may change according to the family size. For example, if you had a wife and children, and they are now separated from you, you may still use the voucher, provided you meet income and other requirements, but may only be eligible for a one bedroom dwelling.


How much is a 2 bedroom section 8 voucher worth?

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.

Can you rent a 3 bedroom unit with a one bedroom section 8 voucher?

Generally, your voucher is for the dwelling of the number of bedrooms specified on it. So the payment standard set by the Housing Authority is going to be based on the number of bedrooms you are qualified to get under the voucher. If you want a dwelling with an extra bedroom the dwelling rent must be equal to or lower than the rent of the dwelling of the bedroom number specified. Additionally, the Housing Authority will determine your affordability of that dwelling based on utility allowance.
