How can you transfer section 8 from OR to WA?
This is known as Porting, which you have the right to do. You need to contact the Housing Authority of the destination (which will be known as the receiving Housing Authority), and arrange things with them and your initial Housing Authority (the one that issued the voucher). This process takes CAREFUL PLANNING, so be careful in what you do and at what stage of the porting. It should be noted that the receiving Housing Authority has the right to interview you and will put you through the same process as a new recipient-- a ported voucher is not a "free pass" through the system.
I am on section 8 and will be moving and was wondering what area City of Fort Lauderdale Housing Authority covers compared to Broward County Housing Authority?
The City of Fort Lauderdale Housing Authority only covers public and affordable housing within the city limits of Fort Lauderdale. The Broward County Housing Authority covers a wider geographic area, including the entire county of Broward, which encompasses several cities, including Fort Lauderdale. So, if you are looking to move within Fort Lauderdale, you would need to work with the City of Fort Lauderdale Housing Authority. If you are considering moving to another city within Broward County, you would need to work with the Broward County Housing Authority.
I need a senior apt near my brother so he can take me to my doctor visits and just to have concerned family I need rent assistance how ?
You can apply for section 8 through your local housing authority.
You are on section 8 and you reside in Florida you terminated your lease with your landlord as of may 30th you found an apt and your new landlord wants June rent in huntington New York is that possibl?
What you are asking is about portability of your voucher, which must be approved by your Housing Program Coordinator (HPC)'s Portability Officer at your Housing Authority. In this case there are two Housing Authorities involved, the Housing Authority in Florida, known as the initial Housing Authority, and the receiving Housing Authority in New York. Before you terminate the lease in Florida, you should first get your voucher ported to NY. When the NY Housing Authority receives your paperwork they will give you an appointment for a voucher there. Your voucher in Florida will still be good and you should not terminate anything there yet. When you find your New York home you need to have it inspected by the receiving Housing Authority and they will give you the okay to move there. You may have to pay your security deposit and the prorated amount of your rent (that is, what you are supposed to pay given the voucher, not the entire amount of the prorated rent). When you have everything set in New York, then you terminate the Florida matter. If you don't follow these instructions or whatever instructions are given to you by both Housing Authorities, you could lose your voucher and rent subsidy. So be very careful here!

Can you accept a section 8 voucher in one state while waiting for one in another?
Surprisingly, yes you can! You can be on as many waiting lists you want to be for a Housing Choice Voucher, formerly known as the section 8 voucher. You can wait for in one state while you are holding a voucher in another. This is generally a strategic move because although you have the ability to port a voucher to another state, the Housing Authority that issued your voucher can claim it cannot afford to port you to the other state. This often happens when you want to move from a rural state -- where there is often no transportation system, medical centers, or other convenient facilities -- to a jurisdiction that does have these conveniences but are often more expensive than the rural area from which you want to move. To port a voucher, the receiving Housing Authority must agree to absorb the costs of such porting or the issuing Housing Authority must agree to be billed by the receiving Housing Authority. So waiting for another voucher might be a good choice in your case. However, you probably already are aware that you can only hold one voucher at a time, so when the other Housing Authority issues your voucher, you will have to let go of the original voucher. Make sure that you make this transition as smooth as possible (in other words, do not burn the bridges behind the original Housing Authority). You may want to check with the Housing Authority that has you on their waiting list to see if they will absorb the cost of porting, or check with your issuing Housing Authority to see if they are willing to be billed, so that you may not have to wait on the waiting list anymore.
