Yes, in most cases, if it's a new felony. Each Housing Authority has its own policies regarding admitting people with felony records. By federal law by Housing Authority cannot admit those convicted of manufacturing methamphetamine or those convicted of sex offenses for which they have to register as a sex offender for the rest of their lives. Most Housing Authority will not admit you if you have a drug offense or a violent felony conviction of less than five years.
