Applying for housing assistance or joining an agency waitlist is free. An agency will not ask you to pay by app, wire or gift card to get a spot. Use HUD’s contact page to find your housing agency, then call to check an offer.
Do not pay to view a home or hold a waitlist spot. Before sending rent or a deposit, confirm the home and the person’s right to rent it. See FTC advice on checking a rental.

Rental terms used on this page
- Housing Choice Voucher (Section 8)
- Rental help run by a housing authority. You find a home, and the agency checks the unit, rent and your household before it approves payment.
- Payment standard
- An amount the agency uses to work out housing assistance for a unit size and area. It does not mean that any home at that rent will be approved.
- FMR and SAFMR
- HUD rent estimates for an area (Fair Market Rent) or ZIP code (Small Area Fair Market Rent). They include rent and most tenant-paid utilities. Your agency may use a different payment standard.
- Utility allowance
- The agency’s estimate of the cost of utilities you must pay. It is not a promise to pay your actual bills.
- Gross rent and tenant share
- Gross rent combines the lease rent and the agency’s utility allowance. Your tenant share is the part you must pay after the agency works out your help.
- Portability
- Moving with a voucher to an area served by another housing agency. Ask your current worker what to do before you move.
- Request for tenancy approval
- The unit and owner paperwork your agency needs to start its rent and housing-quality review. Ask the agency for its form and deadline.

Check the rent with your voucher agency
There is no single approved Section 8 rent for every household in this neighborhood. Use the agency named on your voucher, the actual unit address and bedroom size, tenant-paid utilities and your household information. Ask your worker to calculate your share and review the proposed lease before treating an advertised rent as approved.
If NYCHA administers your voucher
NYCHA lists separate 2026 schedules for annual recertifications and new rentals or transfers. Its current notice ends ZIP-based exception payment standards for new rentals and transfers effective July 1, 2026. Check the current notice with your worker before relying on an older ZIP estimate.
NYCHA payment standards and utility allowancesIf HPD administers your voucher
HPD maintains its own address and ZIP lookup, including exception standards, and its own utility allowances. Use HPD’s current documents with your worker. If another agency issued your voucher, confirm that agency’s rules and any portability steps before using either table.
HPD subsidy, payment standards and utility allowancesTurn a listing inquiry into a complete rental proposal
- Get the exact address, unit number, asking rent, bedroom count, utilities and proposed ready date from the owner.
- Ask your worker which tenant and owner documents are required, how to submit them and how to track the review. Keep the submission confirmation.
- Confirm inspection, lease and move-in approval steps with the agency. A listing, inquiry or owner’s agreement does not complete those steps.
