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?

Answer 1

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!
