The Housing Choice Voucher, formerly known as Section 8, has payment standards by which a dwelling is subsidized. It subsidizes the rent of the dwelling, up to a certain amount, known as the payment standards for the area, minus your portion of the rent and a utility allowance (what the average person pays in utility cost for the type of dwelling you are eligible to rent). Payment standards, which ranges between 90 and 110 percent of fair market rents (FMR's) in the area served by the public housing authority (PHA), are set according to the number of bedrooms the family is eligible to rent of unit of. For example, a family of either one person or a married couple is eligible for a one-bedroom apartment, and the FMR for the Timbuku area is $650 per month, including utility allowance. Timbuku Housing Authority's payment standards are set to 100% of the Fair Market Value for the area, so the payment standard is $650 per month. The amount of subsidy will be the lesser of the actual rent plus a utility allowance, or the payment standard, minus about 30% of the family or person's income, minus lawful deductions (disabled and elderly families get $400 deducted, children get about $350 per child deducted, etc.).
This will depend upon your income, the amount of rent per month, and the bedroom size the voucher holder qualifies for. Your rent plus a modest allowance for electricity and other essential costs of running the home (such as fuel) should equal no more than one third of your income. As such, your local housing authority, through the section 8 program, will provide housing assistance payment (H A P) for the difference, provided the rent remains reasonable.

They will pay the rent desired, provided it's within the Fair Market Rent value of the rent being sought, minus the family's share of the rent, which is determined by family size and income.
Yes, individuals can receive Supplemental Security Income (SSI) benefits and Section 8 housing assistance at the same time in California. SSI benefits are not counted as income for determining eligibility for Section 8 assistance, so you can potentially receive both benefits simultaneously. However, it is important to report any changes in income or household circumstances to both agencies to ensure continued eligibility.
The Section 8 Voucher housing program helps low income families to pay their rent. Section 8 will not allow a person to rent to any relative.
Some Housing Authorities will pay the security deposit as well as the first months rent for a tenant. What I mean by rent is their portion of the rent: the tenant is still obliged to pay their portion of the rent. But very few housing authorities do this.
A local realtor can answer your question.
Prepaid rent is when you pay your rent ahead for a length of time, either as a deposit or as regular rent. Sometimes you can get a discount based on how much rent you pay ahead.
Pretty straight forward. Either pay the rent, or move out.
can you get section 8 for an apartment you are all ready rent but can no longer pay for landlord wants information for section 8 for renters and how you can get it.
I believe it is solely the landlord's responsibility to pay management fees. The landlord charges rent. All fees come out of the rent. Some areas of California have rent control, others do not.
