Consideration will also be given for medical reasons and the presence of a live-in aide.


List of Documents Needed by the Public Housing Authority

The following is a list of documents that will be requested by the PHA to establish eligibility for Section 8 Housing Assistance. The documents may be brought in with the pre-application. The PHA determines eligibility for each person on the application after all documents are presented.

  1. Social Security card for each person listed on the application
  2. Certified Birth Certificate for each person listed on the application.
  3. Proof of income for each household member on the application that receives an income. Example: AFDC award letter, SS/SSI award letter, check stubs from employment, child support, alimony, family support or a notarized letter if your are self-employed.
  4. Reasonable Accommodation form for persons with disabilities requesting accessibility or accommodations to participate equally in the housing program.

Notice of Right to Reasonable Accommodation

If you have a disability, and as a result of your disability you need:

  • A change in the rules or policies to give you an equal opportunity to use the facilities or take part in the Section 8 program, or
  • A change in the way we communicate with you or give you information, you may ask for this kind of change, which is called a reasonable accommodation.

If you can verify that you have a disability, and if your request is reasonable (does not pose "an undue financial or administrative burden"), we will try to grant your request.

We will give you an answer within 10 working days, unless there is a problem getting the information we need, or unless you agree to a longer time. We will let you know if we need more information or verification from you or if we would like to talk to you about other ways to meet your needs.

If we turn down your request, we will explain the reasons, and you can give us more information, if you think that will help.

If you need help filling a Reasonable Accommodation Request Form or if you want to give us your request in some other way, we can help you.

Note: All information you provide will be kept confidential and be used only to help you have an equal opportunity to participate in the Section 8 program.
