Eligible applicants will be placed on a Waiting List. When an application approaches the top of the waiting list, applicants are screened for eligibility and suitability.

Eligibility checks include verification of income based on family size and program requirements. 
Suitability checks include criminal record checks, landlord references, credit checks and character references.
