lose
You could, but usually not. When people lose their voucher, it's usually because of drugs, or other illegal activity. Actually yes you can if you're being sued for eviction because you owe rent, even if you're on the Voucher or Public Housing program.
It depends on the reason for loosing the voucher, but probably not. Nothing prohibits a person from applying, though.
I have a misdemeanor theft charge which I was convicted of do I lose my section 8 voucher someone please help me out with this
you can't get it back once you lose it..you have to apply it again..all over again..unless the decision that was made to terminate your voucher is reversed later on appeal.
In short, yes, you can lose your voucher. Normally you are given 60 days from the date of issue to find a home. If you can't find a home you could ask for an extension for one month at a time, but for no more than two months. This makes it a total of 120 days to find a home.
If you weren't on Section 8 when you were evicted, yes. If you were on Section 8 (now known as the Housing Choice Voucher Program) and were evicted because of violation of lease or non-payment of rent, you could lose your voucher, something that your Housing Program Coordinator and his supervisor can decide on a case-by-case basis. Let's clarify that an eviction is not a simple note by the landlord asking you to move: it's a court proceeding petitioni9ng a judge or magistrate to force you to move out.
It depends on the specific circumstances and the policies of the housing authority. Some housing authorities may terminate a section 8 voucher if a conviction for domestic violence is reported or may require additional steps such as counseling or probation. It is important to consult with the housing authority for guidance in such situations.
All child support ends when you lose legal custody of the kid, or if the kid turns eighteen.
You can only lose your section 8 voucher if you violate the terms of your lease, the landlord files eviction proceedings against you, and wins a judgment against you for eviction.
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.
I would ask the Section 8 program if you can transfer your section 8 voucher to your new city and find a section 8 apartment there, and stay in that apt 'til you graduate. Otherwise, just ask your local Section 8 program since every locality handles it differently.
