Redmond, OR. Housing Works announced today that the waiting list for the Housing Choice Voucher Program, formerly known as the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Section 8 program, will open Monday, January 14th, 2019 at 8:00 am and remain open through January 18th, 2019, at 5:00 pm.
This program is open to low-income qualified residents of Deschutes, Jefferson and Crook counties. Applicants must apply online at www.housing-works.org/apply/.
The time you apply during the week does not impact your position on the list. All applications taken during this time frame will be randomized by a computer and placed on the waiting list to give all applicants an equal chance.
“It’s important to note that anyone who is currently on the waiting list needs to reapply to the 2019 list. This is a yearly requirement,” said Lesly Gonzalez, HCV Director at Housing Works.
Upon request, Housing Works staff will provide technical assistance to anyone needing help filling out the online application.
