Description

The Housing Choice Voucher Program is authorized by the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974. Qualified applicants choose where they want to live as long as the rent is determined to be reasonable and the property meets an inspection based on Housing Quality Standards (HQS) guidelines. Rent is based on income with ZMHA paying the difference directly to the landlord. To qualify for the Housing Choice Voucher Program, an application must be completed. All applications are reviewed to determine if the applicant meets income guidelines. Qualifying applicants are placed on a waiting list until they are mailed a letter for an appointment, at which time the rules and regulations of the program are explained. Your wait on the waiting list may vary.
