Either you are talking about getting a voucher while you are already renting, or you are talking about getting a voucher while you are on public housing.

In the case of the former, if you are already renting a home, and you want your landlord to be able to accept that voucher, yes, that is possible. If the house is suitable for your particular household, and the property meets housing quality standards, then you can use your voucher for your landlord to receive housing assistance payments on your behalf.

In the case of the latter, this means that you could find a home that is privately owned by a landlord who is willing to accept that voucher for housing assistance payments on your behalf, and move out of the public housing unit.
