Where in AZ or in the whole United States, is Section 8 open to applications?

For a whole year I thought I was on a list for Section 8 housing assistance, today I find I am not on any list and that the application process for Section 8 has been closed since 2003.

I don't understand. Is there, or is there not, such a thing as Section 8 assistance and if so, where and how do I apply? I am disabled and my only income is SSDI. I have cognitive problems and difficulty with this process, apparently, even more so than I previously thought considering i have waited a year for nothing.

I am currently in Tucson but i am willing to go to Flagstaff, Prescott or Cottonwood where I hear there may be services available, but I have no clue how to even apply or where.

Thanks for any help understanding phantom goverment services.

MM & Bb BW... There are only a FEW MONTHS out of the Selected year, that the open enrollment for sec-8 accepts applications. I have been on the list since 2005' which is the latest and the most recent application session. I have phoned them and found that from the beginning I was number 2869 on the waiting list. And now, almost 3 years later, I am number 1968.... You can see from the SLOWNESS of the number system on this waiting list that it does NOT move very quickly. I Also know of Two others who are also disabled as well as elderly who were not aware of the special programs for the Disabled, and or elderly! You may want to check into the DISABLED program through section eight! Good Luck! ms_sareen @ Hot Mail. C o m

You can also call the justice department for guidance or even go on line to clearinghouse to see availabe funds agency foundations programs etc. go online to the GovBenefits.gov or the Beehive even check out Human resources table contents... just punch in housing benefits vouchers arizona and search from there... Good Luck Lee

The City of Mesa is accepting pre-applications as of 11/07/06. Check out their website at cityofmesa.org. You can call for an application or download it. Residents of Mesa and people with disabilities get priority. The Arizona Housing Authority website has a long list of low income housing all over the state. Once you get a Section 8 voucher, it can be used anywhere.

You may try to apply for other assistance instead. There is homeownership programs. conventiional housing, scattered sites, all kinds of assistance. 2.2 billion was recently given to HUD to expand resources. I would go to the hud.gov website and look into contacting your local office. http://www.hud.gov/offices/p ih/pha/contacts/
