This is hit or miss: it's up to each individual apartment complex to decide whether they want to take section 8 clients. To improve your chances of finding apartment complexes that take section 8, many housing authorities have lists of landlords that take section 8. Also look for apartment complexes known as Low Income Housing Tax Credit, or LIHTC apartment complexes. As part of their amortization agreements for their federally subsidized low interest loans, they will agree to accept low income residents. Some apartment complexes, however, are only partial LIHTC, meaning they will only rent out a percentage of their apartments to low income residents. Nevertheless, they are likely to take section 8.
You should call your local housing authority to apply for section 8.
Generally, if the felony is at least five years old and is non-violent in nature and does not involve drugs -- usage or distribution -- then you can.

To qualify for Section 8 housing at age 62, you must meet income requirements based on your household size, have U.S. citizenship or eligible immigration status, and pass a criminal background check.

Section 8 is a federal program that provides adequate housing to low-income families. Despite what some people may think Section 8 is not public housing or housing developments. With a Section 8 housing voucher a person can use their allowance on any real estate rental available that accepts these vouchers. As a landlord there are many benefits to renting apartments with Section 8. Getting Paid On Time With section 8 apartment rentals the government pays a percentage of the rent directly to the landlord each month through the local housing authority. In many cases it can be direct deposited. In order to comply with the rules of Section 8, the tenant must stay current with their rent or risk losing their voucher for up to 5 years. Most tenants will not want to risk losing their Section 8 status so they will make their payments. If they lose their job or their incomes is reduced Section 8 will increase their payment to the landlord so the tenant can continue to afford living in the apartment. Tenant Care of the Property When you initially rent out Section 8 houses the apartment is inspected by the local housing authority. If at any time during a tenant’s residency, they damage your property in any way you can report them to the local housing authority. If the housing authority is able to verify you claim of damages they can remove the tenant from the Section 8 program. Once again most tenants will not want to risk this.

As you can see accepting Section 8 for your rental apartment has a few advantages. Qualified tenants who will pay rent on time and maintain your property and a good sources of future tenants. In addition you’re ensuring that good families are able to live in safe, decent housing.
No, that is fraud under federal law. You should inform the housing authority that issued the voucher.
