Section 8 Rules for Visitors and Unauthorized Guests
This is a question we receive quite often.
Example: You qualify for a 2 bedroom and have 3 people living in the house with you. Your uncle needs a place to stay. You have an extra bed or maybe space in the den/living room.
– Is that a problem?
– Can he stay with you?
– Or will that put your Section 8 Voucher at risk?
Here are the facts:
What you need to know about Section 8 Rules for Visitors
Section 8 Rules are very strict! It is important that you realize this right away, before you start getting yourself into trouble. Breaking the rules may mean that you will loose your voucher forever.
The only people allowed to officially live in your home have to be reported on your HUD 50058 form. This is a form that is included in the application process (and the annual renewal) for Section 8 benefits. It’s called the “Family Report” and outlines each member of your family that will be living with you. This is how Section 8 determines the amount of bedrooms you qualify for.
Even a blood relative, who is NOT officially a part of your household, is considered a guest. This can be a parent, sibling, child, grandchild, etc. This means visitation rules will apply to this person, and he/she will not be able to simply live with you.
If you want someone to stay with you for a substantial period of time, you need to receive approval from your PHA.
How Long Can a Visitor Legally Stay In My Home?
According to Section 8 rules, a visitor CANNOT stay in your house for MORE than 14 consecutive nights without approval.
Some of you may be thinking “Great, I’ll just have him/her stay out of my place once every 2 weeks and it will be all good.” WRONG!! The 2nd part of the rule states that a person CANNOT stay with you more than 21 nights total in any one year (12 month period, not calendar year).
Also, keep in mind that the burden of proof is on you, the voucher holder, not the other way around. So if you are reported (by your landlord, friend, etc.) or are accused by your PHA of having an unauthorized individual living with you, it is your responsibility to prove otherwise.
Finally, you should know that it is possible to formally petition your HA and your landlord to extend the 14 night visitation period. You must have a strong reason for this request and explain it clearly in your letter. Also, it is best to submit this letter as soon as possible; don’t want for the 14 night period to pass! If HA approves your request, be sure to keep their letter for your records.
Proving that a “Visitor” is NOT living with you
It is important to know that if you are allowing an authorized visitor to stay with you longer than allowed by Section 8 rules, you are committing FRAUD. This is because in your annual household application, which is a LEGAL document, you sign that the number of people staying with you is true and correct.
However, there may be a scenario, that you have been wrongfully accused, and that person really is a guest.
In any case, once your landlord or Housing Authority suspects that someone has been living with you without authorization, you will need to prove that they actually reside somewhere else.
Here is a list of documents you may need to present. (note, this is a general list, and a particular Housing Authority may need some additional information):
- Mail to the visitor’s “real” address
- Current utility bill from the visitor’s real address
- A lease with a visitor’s name on it
- A signed/notarized statement from the persons you are residing with and a signed/notarized statement from the allegedly-unauthorized individual as well.
What happens if it is discovered that an authorized individual has been living with you?
Depending on state and federal laws in your location, a few things may happen:
- The Housing Authority will take away your Section 8 voucher for good. This means that you will not be able to reapply for Section 8 for a set period of time, or ever in this state.
- If Housing Authority discovers that the person living with you has income, they will request documentation and raise your rent accordingly, to capture the subsidy they have overpaid.
- If you request to include this person in your household, and they are approved, your rent will also go up (if they have official income).
Overall, it is very important to find out what the rules are where you live, before you allow someone to stay with you.
Why are Section 8 Rules So Strict?
You may be wondering what the big deal is if someone starts to live with you? What is the harm?
There are two reasons why the rules are so strict:
Housing Authorities try their best to protect residents and landlords, and to maintain drug and crime free housing. This is why, every member of your family has gone through a criminal background check, before HA approved them for Section 8. An unauthorized visitor has not gone through this criminal background check, so he/she may turn out to be a felon, sex offender, drug addict, etc. A HA would not consider this person safe and would not want them on premises.
HA calculates the reduced amount of rent you pay, based on the reported number of people in your household and your reported income. If someone is staying with you and helping you out with rent, this means you are actually stealing money from the government. This is because if this person would be officially included in your household, your rent would be higher!
Why would anybody report someone having people not on there lease staying with them instead of minding their own business cause when you do so you are jeopardizing their housing and livelihood and there could be reason why they can’t be on their lease from past mistakes noone is perfect but you jeopardize their housing and become the reason that they become homeless and it is hard out here.i would never have that on my conscious that a family is homeless because of me minding their business.that is for housing to find out,that’s their job to do not yours.i wouldn’t tell on my worse enemy and see them homeless cause my mother raised me better than that and you have to have an evil spirit to do some utterly hateful stuff like that and don’t care about anyone besides yourself.their kids etc.its not hard to mind your own business in this world.thats why it’s so much crime and murders in this world from people minding other people’s business and once a person losses everything they get to the point where they don’t care anymore and have nothing to lose.
A bunch of snitches
mr. buckner?
Amen
Your a good and rare individual unfortunately these days it’s neighbor and friends and your country men and are not supposed to be enemies. And this type of thing will destroy our freedoms rights and nation from the inside out.
And they worry about another Nation and our enemies that won’t have to lift a hand to destroy us.
Ben Carson? I have seen going on for over two decades. Every time they try to tighten up things from illegals and scammers they are accused of racism. I am biracial… please do not say I am bias or a Trump supporter. The facts are the facts.
I know an tenant name Taquisha Williams that has 3 other tenants that’s been living in her section 8 apartment for over 30 days which is considered as fraud. The names are Simone Jackson(adult) and 2 children….Alexus and Shamel Gibson.
WHY unless really needed to stop harm harassment or disruptive wsys and rights. To live peacefully.
I’m not going to assume a thing and attempt to judge on a situation i have no dats on.
But if you have not a single thought about this and haven’t a liable claim for this and haven’t thought about how putting people on the streets is reckless and deadly to anyone that is or has been then please use some spare time and think.
Best wishes to all and I’m hurt by my country’s division.
And your government is pushing you all agsinst each other over they say stealingoney from them that the majority work and pay to give them that money.
No wonder why countries dislikes us it shameful as &(&(&+&(
Darkwinter is real and is sadly close to becoming competly true and your government has known about this exact situation and is not doing a thing to negate this knowledge but seems to be making sure it gos exactly the way it was ran almost 20 years ago.
And we all about to be in a deadly life threatening state and when you need of help don’t wonder why those will walk past you with a blind eye
What if the person staying isn’t contributing to the rent and already owns their own home in another state? For example, they come stay with you for three months during the summer. They don’t sell their home, they don’t do a change-of-address, they’re just spending the summer and not helping pay the rent.
I have a quest visit 5 days a week and goes home by 10pm does not stay the night I got verbally warned that he stayed over the 14 night minimum which is false what should I do
You are getting free rent if you are getting any money from the government so why complain? You can ask for an appeal but why not just follow what the housing authority tells you to do. Show some gratitude.
i visit my grandma and broken a couple rules. can i be charge instead of her?

My downstairs neighbor,his girlfriend,and their 2 year old daughter have been living in a section 8 apartment for 6 months.The last 2 months for whatever reason they started to get super loud for 3 hours on a daily basis.I confronted the boyfriend,whose name is not even on the lease because the apartment is in his father’s name,and he refuses to be quieter so I reported him to section 8 housing and he was given a written warning in the mail.My question is how long is it going to take them to get evicted and removed from the residence? I live in Massachusetts if that is important in answering my question.

I currently stay with somebody on housing I have an 8 month old daughter i was paying rent and she wrote me a receipt stating im payed up until april 2020. I was buying her all her food fixing her vehicle and helping her stay sober she has an opiate addiction … Long story short she wants to be high and wants me to leave which is not a problem she picked up a letter saying she isnt supposed to have guests stay more than 30 consecutive days in a row thinking im stupid trying to pull a fast one … IF she was to recieve a letter from housing stating i have to leave what would it say
My mom told me to leave ao her boyfriens can stay over shebmade me hide all my stuff to seem like i dont live there. Can i report to section 8?
If grand daughter visits w/0$paid to me even though she works will I lose my s8
Live-in guests are a common thing in Section-8 housing and similarly subsidized properties. Some residents have had guests for over two years. HUD is not that interested in knowing. They can’t follow up on all claims and ‘proving’ a guest has overstayed their welcome is near impossible. Can’t prove a guest wasn’t just visiting for a few hours and not overnight. And to all those calling freeloaders ‘assh*les’ – you’re exactly right. Even if he resident is desperate and needs companionship, the guest is still an assh*le for jeopardizing anyone’s housing. HUD and its approved Housing programs should do better. Wake up Ben Carson!
We have a Felon living in the ‘Tahoe senior plaza’ housing, apt 107 for over 5 months now management has been told many times still nothing done many of us residents are afraid, he has been seen climbing in his mothers apt window at night trying to sneaking in ,Like you said nothing will be done till someone gets killed or raped!
Ben Carson? I have seen going on for over two decades. Every time they try to tighten up things from illegals and scammers they are accused of racism. I am biracial… please do not say I am bias or a Trump supporter. The facts are the facts.
Why do families kick each other out? I hate people who have the power and then threatened to kick other people out there disgusting people and they should lose their housing, to kick a family member out who’s been doing nothing wrong if that’s the truth that’s a sin.
These are rules for all not just some, it is ok to help but some take advantage.
I agree. I lived with my daughter for 2 yrs. When she could not pay her half of the bills i paid them all. I am 60yrs. My daughters are all in their 40s. My youngest and oldest got into a altercation. I tried to intervene and eventually they stopped. I left for the planned stay with my youngest daughter. A fes days later her and i were served with a protection order. I have been unable to get my belongings and in the processes of looking for a apartment. I dont understand this. My life for 2 yrs gone. The animals i took care of daily i can’t see. I am lost and confused looking for a place to go is a challenge. Why would my daughter do this to me
It always comes back to bite you in the a$$. It simply amazes me at how many self righteous, greedy, inconsiderate, expects everyone to cover their a$$, doesn’t care who they take down as long they get their way, if I can’t have it neither will u, gimme gimme gimme assholes there are out there. First off if they risked their housing for you because of some sob story you cried then be grateful and move on! Don’t jeopardize what they have because your a dick! Whether u threatened them to tell housing to get them to let u to stay or because you give them a guilt trip or because you throw a couple bucks to them to cover the added food or utilities or just for putting up with your dumba$$ move on! Why you gotta be that way? So tell me what and who gains when that person (I.e your sister n kids or your mother n law or whoever) when they lose their housing, has to pay back all that money when they are already on a limited income…who benefits from being a nice person? Nobody is worth losing your housing over! Especially the last two greedy a$$hats that posted!
Tassie you’re so angry lol.. My mother is a bum! No job, gets disability for mental health but downs her pills with alcohol, sells some of her pills, gets money for rent unbeknownst to section 8 on top of all that! If she doesn’t care about her situation then why should I? Why should anyone for that matter?? If you need section 8, cool, abide by the rules. You can’t be going around, f****g with people’s lives expecting no retaliation. Sorry not sorry
These are rules for all not just some,t is ok to help but some take advantage.
Get this,I had 8 strokes can’t fix meals lives alone, landlord so cheap only fixed my bedroom, kitchen ceilings after half year him was paid, then the 3 other apt had only 1 furnace thermostat,I get er so hot and same what paid landlord wasn’t get him into money i had aphasia can’t talk good get take advantage the need understand the time all instead they & landlord.
Thank you, Tassie, I feel the exact same way. Being hate is a strong word, I do strongly disagree and dislike those who are like that. I just received my voucher and my worker said that I can have a significant other live with me but I don’t think I’m letting anyone live not to visit me. I have little ones and people are truly crabby when they feel like if they don’t have it then others shouldn’t and that is not cool.
What if a guest isnt trying to leave and trying to sqauters law what can I do
I have the same question? Boyfriend said a friend could crash for a week now he wont leave. What can we do?
How can you evict a person thats not on the lease that won’t leave after you ask them too and they refuse.
Give them a 30 day notice to vacate if they don’t leave you must follow up with eviction but that might get you evicted as well if you are submitting.
Get a restraining order on them. It’s the only fast way. Other wise you will have to give them 3 months and you know what people may do in that time out of anger.
Clearly you’re giving advice that’s not correct… it states in a restraining order that it will NOT HELP EVICT a PERSON Or HELP ANY INDIVIDUAL OBTAIN MONEY OWED TO THEM!
Can a landlord make my quest sign in every time they visit? Can a landlord make my visitor hand over and ID as a basis for entry?
Yes they do it at my boyfriend’s building, it’s not Section 8 but…. it’s annoying and once they get to know you they should not be asking every time that’s a bit of overkill.
I am almost due to have a baby and I’ve been living with my mother in her section 8 apartment for the last 6 months. I am not on the lease but I’ve been paying her cash every month. She is a drunk and when she’s in her “moods” and wants extra money, she threatens to change her locks, evict me and now she has resorted to calling the police lying and claiming she will get a restraining order. All my belongings are there, I receive mail… and I do believe she wants to get a restraining order to avoid having to legally evict me as she can lose her voucher. I love her but I will report her if she lies on me to get me kicked out while I’m about to have a child soon. Any advice?
Wow! Some people just don’t fucking care. What a POS. Where did these people grow up? Who taught them their values? I can’t believe someone makes a comment like that and not expect people to tell them who wrong they are.
Get your own damn apartment. THen Get child support. THEN GET BIRTH CONTROL. You are gonna be a mother soon. Grow up ! You can not expect someone else to shelter you.
Must be nice to look down on everyone from your high horse!
If you’re not on her lease you’re not suppose to be living there. She can only have guest a consecutive 14 days, unless she goes to section 8 and puts you on her lease. Nonconsecutive visits are 21 days in one year. Hope this helps, best of luck.
WOW, what a nice brother… you would jeopardize your sisters housing. Four months you say, and she never reported it, and you been paying her rent, and you want to show your receipts. You’re an asshole… She opened her house to you and you want to feed her to the sharks. What a POS you are….
Yea that’s pretty fucked up and a hater. I’m not letting anybody live with me in
I have been staying with my sister for 4 months in Baltimore. I’m not on the lease but have been paying her rent. My mail comes there my clothing is there and I work can she just put me out after she allowed me stay there and I been paying her cash and I have receipts that her name is on and is signed by her from me paying her could she or S8 just put me out can or should I contact legal aid for my issue.
Justtttttttt LEAVE…
You are there illegally. GET YOUR A** OUT!
Get your own shit! Don’t snitch because u freeloaded off a house u couldn’t get ! Smh loser
Legally you’re not supposed to be there. If your living there is reported to the Housing Authority she will get kicked off housing, and both of you will be looking for new residence. She’s committing fraud by having you there.
People never cease to amaze me, they always want to ruin something for someone else, it’s all about jealousy someone else has something that they want so they’re going to try to get it any way they can. Just remember for the people act this way what comes around goes around and karma bites you in the ass.
First of all, if you decide to leave the section 8 with some one else, unless there name is on section 8 then u will lose ur side of section 8. Then they would give it to other house hold member, only if they start a back ground check on both of the family member, and have income too pay rent to section 8. I would never give it up,just tell your family to please move out or your head of house so they have to move out cause u decide to move, god bless.
If I’m on sec 8 and I want to add a relative child to my housing voucher. What type of paperwork do I have to provide? Can the child be I foster child and I refuse foster care payments. Would that let them be added. Because it states that a foster child cannot be added to voucher because you are getting payed by the fostercare system. Well I dont want the money. I’ll figure it out. I just want by youngest child’s sibling to be cared for and loved. To be with her brother.
If a tenant with Section 8 has her grandson who is in his mid twenties, has no disability allowed to reside with her…he’s lived with her over a year. She claims he is her caregiver however, she works , gardens and does her own shopping. This is in NH. What are the rules on this
The rules are mind your own damn business. Simple and self-explanatory, just mind your business before karma bites you in your ass. Stop messing with people. Like mfs like you have nothing else better to do, I wouldn’t wish homelessness on nobody. It’s 2020 can we as a people stop the chaotic bullshit.
So my mom has section 8 housing. My daughter and I aren’t on her lease or housing paperwork, but we are currently staying with her for a little while. I will need to register my daughter into school soon. Will I be able to register my daughter in the school district with no issues towards her housing?
We both on disability his on ssi and I in ssd I have section 8 voucher can I add him to live with me. Have to moved by the end of the yr they sold out.
Can i add someone on my section 8 voucher to live with me what information do i need
why would you call an leave a message with child and family services?
How do I file a complaint and find out if a apartment is part of the Section 8 program? I believe my neighbor is committing FRAUD in very since of the word.
What state are you in?
I have documentation that Patricia doggie villela had knowingly had I and other guest staying with her. I myself have documentation for a period of 11 years
I am on Section 8 and in 2012 they changed it from single parent to disabled (I receive supplemental security income/ ssi). I made a mistake and let my (fault) friend stay 1 night so he could get a good night sleep and be ready for another friend that owned a small business could pick him up for work (within a few days had to fire him). Now, my so-called friend refuses to leave and he knows that I am on Section 8 and don’t cares if I become homeless since I no longer have family near by. How can my landlord and I get if out without getting into trouble? He had threaten both by saying that we allowed him to move in since I am disabled to care for me. Yes, I am disabled I can still do some stuff on my own and my daughter is able to come back if she need to. There is a Section 8 office in the same city in Florida where she lives and we are trying for a transfer request once we have the money saved up to do a state to state transfer. I wish I never said only one night.
What you have is a non-problem! You need to beat your friend to the punch. Call the police to put him out, which they problem wont because of it being a civil situation, but this will put your effort on record. Next, call section 8 and explain it to them, so that they can assist with getting him out. Have your landlord to back up your efforts. You can also have the locks changed. You will also want to contact section 8 and explain the problem to them and let them put him out. However, the longer you wait to do anything the worse it will become for you, because it will only look like you have invited him to stay.
Call The Po Po On That homeJacking holding you hostage Bum!
Get a restraining order against him. Look for legal aid in your area. Then get the police to help him get out of your home.
Can a person use your address for mailing address but not living there? Or would this be considered to be living in your house?
I work over nights and live on hud housing out in Oregon. my boyfriend is listed as my care provider since he is the one providing care for my children while i work. Recently i recieved a unauthorized guest sitation for him being at my home more then he is supposed to. We provided a hand written lease agreement from his step mom (whom he lives with currently) my a landlord is not excepting that as a formal lease agreement. I have contacted hud about the situation. They have informed me that he must leave the three nights i am off. Does this mean he can not come over during the day as well? My apartment manager is demanding i put him on the lease because she sees him and says “He lives there”. Or im getting a ten day eviction notice. I have complied with his not staying at my apartment but the nights i work now it seems like im being told he cant come over during the day on the days i am off..
They have formal leases you can print out online, do that and tell her to shut her nosy trap
If I’m on section 8 it’s just me and my kids on the voucher but i have a spouse who helps take them to and from school watches them while i work she’s not working and have no income can she stay with me
I have I question I live in low income and my kids dad need some where to go on house arrest can i let him come stay with me on house arrest
No. They do background checks on people they allow to live there. Ask your apartment manager.
anybody knows how long can a guest stay with the tenant in Beaverton, Oregon? is it 14 days
learn to read, that might be part of your problem
There is no need to be rude. The rules could be different from state to state.
What about for emergencies regarding in people’s Health your your parents health and they need you there for me know just a little bit with a doctor’s note nj
I live in Jefferson County and were told if visitors were to stay with us that their vehicles would be towed and impounded. From what I have read regarding visitors and HUD rules, this does not appear to be legal. Can anyone please advise me?
Because people who pay TAXES are TIRED of MFS lying and getting over for FREE! I pay full price for my rent, with a child on the way and u don’t see me running begging for government assistance. I know someone who’s been lying to her housing for YEARS!! Her child’s father lives with her and he has a full time job, makes good money. And she has people stay with her charging them rent and her leasing office and housing don’t kno anything! But they always on social media boosting, showing off like they got it like that and the state pays her rent. She doesn’t even WORK, child is almost 6 years old and STILL not in school!! But you have an Iphone, apple watch, get your nails done every week, but cant even pay your FULL RENT, GIVE ME A BREAK!! SMFH
What works for *you* doesn’t work for *everyone.* It is very shortsighted to assume *others* are in the same exact shoes as yourself. Judge much?
Some ones sounds jelous
Where can I find hud publication on overnight guest rules and adding a family member to your lease.
Where can I find HUD publication on overnight guest rules and adding a family member to your lease?
My 5 months old sons father has been cheating on me with a woman who is on public housing and he moved in with her he works a good job makes 16.50 hr and she has 5 kids I called and left a message with the children and families also public housing authority here . In ohio anyone ever deal with ohio and this situation.
If me and my girl break up and we both have section 8,and I move out,can I get section 8 ?
Why is it that there are so many people out there here worried about what every one else is doing and all up in there bussiness … How about everyone mind there in bussiness and enjoy the little time we have here with our friends and family . In the end it isn’t going to matter what a neighbor did or didn’t do.. STOP LOOKING FOR EXCUSES TO BE UGLY TOWARD SOMEONE.. FIND JESUS
I completely agree! People should mind their own business! Section 8 is too strict on tenants and often take other people or the landlords version of things! It’s pure b/s!!!
Nobody should have the right to evict based on amount of people or how long they stay! It should be based off of real legal wrong doings! Or not paying rent.
Then they should get a job
Everybody I know that gets section 8 HAS a job. It’s not free rent. The tenant has to pay 30% of their income and S8 pays the difference. Stop judging!
Don’t agree be cause if you live there and your not on the lease because they haven’t reported you what can you do when they’ve took your money for whatever and you have been workin but they wake up 9-10 mnths 3 mnths whatever and now it’s get out knowin you have no other place to go with all your belongings there and call the police change the locks and all kinds of crazy stuff.. I’m goin through it it’s not fair the government is actually on point for whats right because I actually don’t have any problems where I wouldn’t be able to reside there. For one I no a couple on sec 8 both have a voucher and they rent 1 of there properties out like they own it… Think about it?
I totally agree with you and the last comment. Don’t these people have better things to do with their lives other than look for ways to ruin other lives. Mind their business, AMEN
Amen!
How do I let the authorities know that someone has been and still is abusing the system. She has had people live with her and give her money for rent. She has two people living there that is not on the paperwork for section 8. I just hate when people abuse the system when there is people out there that really need it.
What’s to say they all don’t need the help?
What’s to say maybe the person messed up and don’t qualify for housing?
How do you personally know the voucher size?
This sounds like a personal matter you have with the person! I think you should just leave it Alone!!!.
How does this personally affect you? It doesn’t, right? I could never understand people who need to be in someone else’s business.
I don’t think they will, let me out I’m going through the same thing almost as my mother taking my son, her grandson out of the house a good guy. I’m astounded by the coldness of people who claim to be family.
If there are 4 people living in a home that are on section 8 can the head of household just move and leave with her husband she wants to move and not use the section 8, and leave her son and grandson with no housing? They are all on the lease and do everything legally! Would section 8 allow her son and grandson to stay in the home?
Hate able body people, that can work, abusing the system, having boyfriend living with them and not reporting. And no; not envious I have work for what I have. I feel that young persons shouldn’t get this help and if they do make the help temporary. Help the elderly more.
Firstly people have to go through a screening process prior to getting Sec. 8. Just because they LOOK able-bodied doesn’t mean that they are. People with mental health issues also qualify. I don’t “hate” anyone and I don’t even get Sec. 8.
So I haven’t stayed with a woman who has section 8, I have been there for about 4 months, I have gotten one letter mailed to her house. Last night, she had a crack attack, she smokes heavily and has people in and out paying her to use the house. I don’t want to stay there necessarily, but I have nowhere to go it’s the middle of winter, and I need at least a few days to figure my stuff out, what am I able to do? I don’t necessarily want to call housing on her, but I also don’t want to threaten her, is there a way that I can professionally let her know that we are legally able to say there. Also I know that if you’ve been somewhere for over 30 days, and your stuff, is there that legally she has to go to Court and file a report that she doesn’t want us living there, so it’s kind of messed up in both situations. Thoughts?
I was evicted out of section 8 apt in oct. I lost my job in aug i had my rent on a payment plan with the landlord 0and my rent was suppose to go to 0 i went to on court and there was new manager that new nothing about mycase at court and afortunately i lot my apt. I havefriends and family on that property and the manager bans us rhen shell lift the ban and ban us again shes done this 4 xs now, but no0w s0he0s banning me my husband and our kids from being on the poperty. For no reason. She never has a reason besides we have no buisness here. Is that legal is there anything i can i can d0o. My kids even go to my best friend0s for awhile after school cause my best friend th0e teanets babysit th0em 0while im at work after school. Can she b0an us for no reason then lift it the. Ban us lift it a0nd kep doing this cause i was wrongfully evicted
Just wanted to see how long it takes for approval from section 8 for a friend and small child to be able to live with them she has no income and really needs the help
How do I report someone that is in section 8 that has peope living with them and that they are not on the least? That they are working.
Are you snitching ??, geesh I tell ya if everyone just mind there own business all will be in peace with each other, I mean are they hurting you, or disturbing you if so just confront them and not be butthurt.
Principe, because the household Prettygirl is aware of has unauthorized people living with them, everyone else in the complex is at risk as management is not able to properly vet these folks. In addition, they are not paying to live there which means the rest of us are paying their rent though our taxes. I have no problem subsidizing ppl that need help but asking them to play straight should not be asking too much.
Amen
Yes….it is FRAUD if you cheat HUD. I have worked all my life & then I get this renter next door to me who think she can do what she wants. People screaming obscenities, arguing & fighting, cars running in & all day & night. It has ruined my peace at home. I indirectly pay for you to live free. There are all jobs out there & she should work too but she doesn’t. She 24 sits on her butt all day smoking cigarettes. So call snitch….I am proud to my civic duty & call out people who think they are deserving and have no respect for anybody else.
How to report a HUD tenant for having son/nephew living with her
Question; Could one of the Section 8 Attorneys answer this Please.
As soon as possible.
I have a friend, whom has had his girlfriend moved in with him. He had his section 8 about 5 years. They started out dating, then came talk of engagement, then came talk about Marriage. Has stated that he is worried about losing his section 8, because he didn’t report his girlfriend living with him.
Now, he’s telling me he wants to get a Restraining Order against her, to have her move out of the apartment. Claims she has a Dr.Jeckle / Mr. Hied, Personality.
Question; How would this effect him and his section 8 , once the Restraining Order is File, because she will not move out of his apartment.
Have anyone responded to your question? Have you any answers or advise pertaining to this situation? I have a friend with a similar problem as your friend and she would like to know how to move forward on getting this person out of her home without any issues of being caught and evicted from her subsidized housing. Please inform me of anything on how to do this she just wants them out so bad and they will not leave voluntarily. Thank you in advance.
They are considered a tenant after a certain amount of days in your apartment. Tell her to go buy some milk and change the locks while she is gone.
Lol yup! That’s what I had to do with an x…The cops got sick of coming to kick him out and finally I got sick of it too. While he was out actin a fool I had a family member come and change the locks. Sorry a** mofo!
Sorry, but now it’s her apt too.
( more then 30 living at the same address has made her a tenant lawfully)
No restraining order will help evict anyone! He’s going to wind up getting himself evicted in the process. In order to evict ANYONE the CORRECT process if eviction has to be followed. (Period) even for those who house people & their on section 8.
You can ask a person to vacate in 3, 30 or 60 days & just pray they leave! If not… the only way of getting them out is by filing an
Unlawful Detainer through the courts.
You cannot put a person out in 3 or 30 days, & changing locks are illegal as well.
Whoever IS on the lease will wind up owing non-lease holder for stress… hotel fees… etc
And believe me when I tell You, judges take locking an individual out very seriously.
Is it legal to kick someone off Section 8 without an informal hearing that was requested? Also, I have no key to my mailbox because someone changed the lock, but mail came here for about 9 different people I have never heard of before I lost the key ( because someone removed it from my purse while I was asleep) and the mailman will not return the mail to sender. How is it my fault if someone decides to be a jerk and get mail here without my consent? I have no way to fight this because I can not even receive mail anymore. I have a feeling someone has been keeping important notices because now I have to be out in three days when I was just handed a 90 day notice on Dec.3. I have been paying the rent plus extra pet rent. But now I have to pay the entire amount or be out in three days when I never got an answer to my informal hearing request and an inspection is set for Jan 7. This makes no sense because if I am to pay the full amount because I am terminated, why do they need to come at all? Help
One of the first taboos of sec 8 never ever ever ever allow anyone to get mail at your address. EVER! you’re not gonna be able to prove this so you’re probably done for. Sorry.
For Reals! Even if it’s a guns&ammo magazine. NO MAIL!
Sec 8 person lived in unit 2 months. No rent no sec 8 payment Portland. Also had guy living with her. Is it okay that case mgr wouldn’t pay the landlord fir the two months. Voucher holder wouldn’t sign paperwork. So two months lived in unit paying nothing.
Is there anyway to report the housing inspector? I have been taking care of my elderly dying mother and when the inspection was scheduled I had a friend come to my house to let them in. One of the smoke detectors in the bedrooms malfunctioned and had to be replaced within 24 hours. So I had the same person come back the following morning and wait for them so I could go and take care of my mother. The inspector was a rude jerk and accused my friend of living at the residence, which they do not. He tried to explain he was just helping out and the inspector yelled at him and told him section 8 would find out what was really going on. I am not worried since I have nothing to hide, but I find his behavior extremely unprofessional and rude and am hoping there is someone I can contact about this.
If a person who has a finace lives in hud housing ad once had a possion charge visit her ad the charge was 9 yrs ago but has been cleared may he or she visit
I am about to receive a section 8 voucher.
I am living on ssd.
I currently live with my exwife and two young sons 13 & 15.
I am very involved with my sons sports, school activities, pickup and drop off to school.
Can I request a second bedroom for my boys knowing they will spend many nights at my house during the course of the year.
Before I stopped working my boys spent have the week with me and half with their mom.
Just add them on your lease up from & there will be no worries!
No she can’t. There is a checklist that you receive from the housing authority each year that clearly states that no one other than those named on the lease can use your mailing address.
If my sister needs a place to stay to get out of an abusive relationship can she stay with me and apply for her own section 8 to get her own place to live?
I have to have surgery and need to stay with my sister to help me for 2 weeks. She is on section 8 housing. Is this allowed?
what if u lie about being married
My neighbor has a boyfriend living with her and his not on the list.. he also sales food out without a permit can she be investigated
Stop snitching
Stop leeching of the taxpayer!! Get a job see what it’s like. Maybe you’ll reconsider!!
ALOT of people on section 8 have a job and have to pay 30% of their income to the rent. For instance, I have to pay $900 first before section 8 helps out with the remainder of the rent. Your ignorance is disgraceful and I really hope that you never have to struggle financially or become disabled. If you do, you’ll have one hell of a wake up call!
That’s right, Shanice!
U say stop snitching but single fathers that pay child support can’t get hud like u worthless females can u should not be allowed to live off my tax payer dollars to have your kid boyfriend stay with you for free
Omg right?! Hearing of all the jealous people who have been hateful and can’t mind their own fricken business and to ruin someone else world would somehow make them feel better about them selves kinda sorta makes me sick arent they embarrassed of themselves wow they should be ms cravits huh yuk
Why not just leave other people alone? I never could understand why people call and report other people? Is it boredom, jealousy? Rule of thumb is.. Mind your own business!!
AMEN to that! Hate snitches!!!
Snitches reek of the horrible stench of hatefulness gross embarrassed for them acting like snobs who cant stay in their own stench no snitches on sec eight rather have a felon lolt
My Friend is Bi-polar, Adhd, and skitzo. he is on disability and and sec.8. We both live in Missouri and i have been his best friend for almost 20 years, with our relationship it could be argued that i calm his rage and help him be a better person. he has a two bedroom apt and wants me to live with him but does not want to risk getting taken off sec 8. i make roughly $25000 a year, and i do not have any felonies, what all would i need to do and could i even qualify to be added to his voucher, would they even factor in that he has less outburst when im around
Yes, if both people have section 8 you are able to share the home.
Do I qualify for section 8 housing because I am 4 months pregnant living with my fiancé and I I have a Medical history too which includes being in a psych ward for 3 months. Since I am engaged to him and have a medical history am I elegible for section 8 housing????
My nephew lives in a home with his two children and has a Section 8 voucher. The children’s mother (who is unstable and only sees the kids under the court’s supervision) called the housing authority and stated that both a girl he used to date and his mother live with him illegally. The housing authority wants him to provide proof of where they both currently live (leases and utility bills). My nephew’s mother lives in another state and they haven’t spoken since she visited him (for two days) a year ago. He and the girl broke up when she finished school and left town. Even if he knew where to contact them it’s unclear if they would actually help. What can he do? How can the housing authority compel people who don’t receive Section 8 or have anything to do with the person who does receive it to provide information to them?
I have a few medical issues and so does my son. My friend is a felon but concerned about our well being alone. Can I request him to be added as a live in caregiver since one of the medical issues I have are seizures?
Most likely not. They’ll finger print him, run a back ground check, and go from there. The whole reason they do O background checks is to keep felons, sex offenders, etc out.
I am being rented a room in a section Section 8 home. I was led to believe that the person living in this duplex on the home. a month-and-a-half later after residing in this Section 8 home that I did not know about I was tipped off by listening to conversation in the neighborhood that the woman who lives here had a granddaughter who collected rent from me for the past 6 months. their grandmother and mother knew about the situation and allowed it to take place by having this on authorized renter live in the apartment for more than 6 months and still resides there. they have since abandonedthe unauthorized person and prior they had a felon living with them for 4 monthswho as well was not authorized.will the person who is on Section 8 at this residence be kicked off theSection 8 programbe reprimanded or fined? I intend on reporting this incident The Housing Authority.
It sounds like they’ve made quite a few mistakes. One of they’re mistakes was trusting you enough to allow you into they’re home. Obviously, there has been hurt feeling that have nothing to do with section 8. So, you’ve decided to be a spiteful snitch and try to make them lose they’re section 8 housing. No one believes you were unaware that you were living in a subsidized home. Your question “ if they will be reprimanded or fined by section 8 “ shows me just what your about. You know very well that they will lose they’re section and most likely forever. All money received over the amount they claimed will be added as unclaimed income. They have committed fraud and yes they will owe money. But, you also knew that.
In my opinion, the people that rented you a room did something illegal, and you are going to make them pay. It’s what your doing that’s wrong. Mean and vengeful people like you that enjoy the suffering of others are why our world is so screwed up. Get out and rent somwhere else.
Will it feel good to know they’ll be homeless and stuck workout help for the test of their lives? Is that the kinda person God would want you to be. Shameful.
Can I give my vouch passed to my kids?
Can a person that has a felony drug charge marijuana and domestic violence charge a home invasion charge commencement in the concealed weapon felonies and misdemeanors charge get approved for Section 8 housing
If a person did time for drugs and haven’t been in trouble in 16 years can they get section 8
Oh, absolutely he’ll be approved immediately. Actually, you go straight to the front and we’re gonna get you the most nicest places to choose from! Processing might take 2 or 3 days. You have to be a little patient but then, it’ll be here before ya know it!
Enjoy your free ride. Maybe you could do a party where you acted and performed like two guys invading their own home.
How exciting!!
No way!!
Can a blood relative (great uncle) of my 11 year old son be my landlord ?
I was never married to my sons father and his uncle has not been a part of our lives till very recently
I would like to know if a person who is doing ARD Program can be added or still qualify for there section 8 voucher?
My spouse and I are vash sec 8 our daughter has a 5mo old and is homeless can we add her and the baby to our voucher
Go to the section 8 / mdha office and ask to start the process of adding your daughter and grandchild to the voucher. They will give you the information to fill out. It is an easy process. The only hurdle is there rules on past felony drug charges and domestic violence charges. Even then I would still fill out the information and talk to your section 8 worker about the charges. In some cases they will still approve it. No disrespect intended with me mentioning the last part.
My friend moved his girlfriend in to his,apt 6 months ago he’s, on hud. And disabled. She’s disab ed but she does work. I don’t think anyones,said anything yet. Or he hides her very well.
Oh does She lives there. Can he just do that? Can she be added to his hud if he gets caught with her living with him? Can he then put her on his hud if they found out she was is living there.
I live in Pennsylvania and receive sec 8. If my 22 yr old daughter became homeless and wants to apply for food stamps and medical can she use my address to receive her mail? And no she does not live with me but I’m not trying to just leave her with nothing. She was in a bad relationship and had to leave her apartment…any advice be appreciated
No she can not use your address this can mess your situation up.
Yes she can; a mailing address is not residency. Other people snooping in your mailbox is a crime.
What happened if a section8 tenant leaves and abandons the house but has friends living with her and the friends have been paying the rent with money orders under there name on the money orders and now landlord is evicting the tenant the lives her on lease but abandonded it and hasnt been back snese left and electricity is under the person the tenant has living with her and cable, phone,internet is also in friend that is staying there
If the tenant abandons the home, then that tenant is considered to have moved out. If that tenant was on section 8, then, except under certain circumstances, the tenant is to have violated the terms of their lease, and the tenancy would end. If the landlord took the tenant to court and won the case, the tenant will likely have lost their voucher. Any extra information, such as family members and other people who were not authorized to stay with the tenant in the first place, would not apply and could not remedy the situation. Voucher is handy to a person, not the property (unless this is public housing, which is owned by the public and is property based). In the case where the landlord is evicting the tenant, the landlord would also be inviting anyone who is living on the property, authorized or not. The voucher is not handed down to the next tenant by that means.
I’m on Section 8 can I move my boyfriend is who collects SSI or will they deny me ??
If you want to add your boyfriend to the lease, you must follow the proper procedures in adding him to the lease. Your boyfriends income would be a Factor in determining the rent for your household. In most cases, you CANNOT add your boyfriend! Most housing authorities do not allow non-relatives to move-in on a voucher. However, given that your boyfriend is disabled and is collecting SSI, there may be an exception to that rule if you are disabled as well Factor in determining the rent for your household. In most cases, you CANNOT add your boyfriend! Most housing authorities do not allow non-relatives to move in on a voucher. However, given that your boyfriend is disabled and is collecting SSI, there may be an exception to that rule if you are also disabled.
Does this “law” apply to each person? Or if I have 4 different family members stay with me three days out of the year, does that mean I have used up ALL MY 14 OVERNIGHT RIGHTS FOR AN ENTIRE YEAR? I’M ON HUD, SUBSIDIZED APT RENTAL. I’M TOLD 14 DAYS PER CALENDAR YEAR IS MAXIMUM, EVEN IF IT IS 14 DIFFERENT PEOPLE, EACH SPENDING ONLT ONE NIGHT. IS THIS CORRECT?
If you have four people staying four nights at your place, that counts against the 14 days As FOUR DAYS, not 16.
My girlfriend is currently techincally homeless, and I would like to have her live with me, but she is not a felon, or any of that, because her ex threw her out, but she has no ID, no $, nothing. Is there any possible way that I can get her onto a Section 8 voucher?
No ID, no credentials? Then she cannot be added to the household. If you want to try to get her a section 8 voucher, then you’re going to have to try to get her on the waiting list when one becomes available. You’re having a voucher is not going to speed up the process of her getting one. On the other hand, if you end up getting married to her, then she is part of the household and has to be added to the lease and accordingly, to the section 8 voucher you hold
Would the rules apply if the person who is visiting is staying in a camper at the section 8 house?
If the person is staying on the property in a camper, and the person is not staying with you, The voucher holder. If the landlord consents to you parking the camper on the property, you can stay as long as you want, or as long as the landlord permits: This is just between you and the landlord, not the Housing Authority administering your friend’s voucher.
What if “The Landlord KNOWS” that an extra boarder is staying at the property?
I have this situation in my neighborhood. The Tenant’s BF is staying with her and HE’S a convicted Felon. Of course he’s not allowed to be there, as he’s not even on the lease.
*What happens if the Landlords also KNOWS and does nothing about it?
*Is the Landlord held to a standard of LAW?
*Does the agreement between HUD and the Landlord have a “responsibility” clause holding the Landlord responsible?
(it would seem to me that a Landlord looking the other way, would be JUST AS GUILTY as the Tenant)
In this particular case, the landlord doesn’t matter. If the person you know is violating their section 8 rules, then you have the right to report it to the Housing Authority that is handling their voucher. If you do not know which Housing Authority that is, write to or call All of the Housing Authority‘s that are in that jurisdiction. For example, my Apartment complex falls under the jurisdiction of three different Housing Authorities in my area
My minor son has a disability and has been in and out of jail a couple of times which I was honest about to section 8. Im in a court battle with Oregon youth authority for how they treated my son and they wrote a letter saying he wasn’t with me even tho Ive never lost custody and the manager has seen him in his room. I do have 2 other girls who have special needs. My case worker decides to take him off the voucher and says shes not listening to me and will do whatever Oregon Youth Authority says. They wont even give me a new case worker. Can they do this? They want me to move to a 2 bedroom but I cant have my son sharing a room with his 2 sisters. What am I supposed to do?
your son might have to sleep in the living room.
I want to add my boyfriend to my section 8 because I am 4 months pregnant with our first child. He currently has a misdemeanor on his record will they accept him?
A misdemeanor should not be an issue.
All the best.
Is there a limit to how many visitors you can have per year? Is the 21 days total oer person, or all together?
Can section 8 control how many people visit me? I was reported by my neighbor that I had company all the time. Am I not able to bbq or even a birthday party without reported by jealous neighbor? I think one participant shouldn’t be able to harass another participant just because
My understanding is that if you have company to your resident, you are responsible for everything they do and say to your resident. If the neighbor feels like your company is disrespecting them, they have the right to report you to HA. It’s in your lease that you signed to, to respect your neighbors. You have to remember you can be reported to PA for anything especially if the neighbors feel disrespected by your guests. They can even call the local police on you as well.
Yes, but only if the police arrest someone from the party can the housing Authority do something about it, And then only if the landlord does something first: it starts with the landlord evicting the voucher holder.
STOP partying. So many people who are on Section 8 have unruly kids and LOVE to throw parties and disrupt the peace.
not all cause i dont party and i have section 8 over 20 years and i pay my bills on time. also i treat my apartment like i own it .
Frequent parties? Frequent gatherings? Those have nothing to do with your housing authority whatsoever. The question is: is anyone or any group of people staying at your place more than 14 nights consecutively? If your answer is no, and you’re telling the truth, and this has nothing to do with the Housing Authority and as such does not fall under their jurisdiction. If the partygoers or other visitors are not behaving themselves within your control – read your apartment lease carefully, because most apartment complexes have a rule that the tenants must have control over the visitor or visitors and their behavior.. If those kinds of rules are violated, then the landlord can evict, and you could lose your voucher. However, the landlord must give you notice to correct the problem and the opportunity to correct it before they can kick you out.
From what i see you people will beat and kick an oppressed and suffering person with no remorse. The Lord says to lighten the burden of others, not increase it. If a tenant or resident isnt causing trouble and youre getting your oney youre only overstepping boundaries but involving yourself in business that has nothing to do with you in truth. “And the work of righteousness shall be peace, and quietness confidence & assurance in the Lord forever” please remember the promised land didnt technically “belong” to the Israelites, just occupied by them.
I got my section 8 voucher but hopics of los Angeles gave my voucher to someone else I been waiting for 1 year and they won’t tell me how to reclaim my voucher for sec 8 I shouldn’t have to live in the tent because they gave my voucher to someone else
He who is out sin cast the first stone enough said
What if you got fired for petty theft
Fired for petty theft? Petit theft is a misdemeanor, and if you were fired for it, not arrested for it, then the Housing Authority cannot do anything about it in terms of kicking out the voucher holder.
OMG-Report the poor person! Don’t worry about the rich people that are stealing more than pennies out of your tax dollars! Trump filed several bankruptcies SCREWING YOU OUT OF MONEY! Trump then BRAGGED that he was so smart! Now-they are about to give themselves more tax breaks! Who is subsidizing their free ride? I bet one of you would report a homeless vet for stealing food out of a garbage can! SHAME ON YOU AND MIND YOU OWN BUSINESS!!
AMEN! Betty Boop! Concise, poignant and head on truth!
When you people disrupt us tax payers, you know, the reason why you are living rent free, it is MY business. So abide by the rules or get kicked off. BTW Trump 2020!
You sound foolish. And Trump doesn’t even care about us “tax payers” either. Only the people LIKE HIM (super rich). And from how you commented, I am more than sure that you are not amongst that caliber of people. But I digress…. you are no more important to him than the people you are attempting to demean. So while you are giving your “all hail Trump” war cry, your cry will surely change soon once his irratical changes affect you as well. God be with you. Because you’re worse than any person seeking help in living. At least they’re asking. You will know what they are going through real soon.
I got into it with my landlord he threatened to evict me and served me a a 60 day with no reason. And did not inform HA. I took it t HA and they returned it to him and now he has mailed only a 3 day for subletting and telling me to remove any cars not registered to me. I rent a single home and the entire property I rent is gated/fenced private. This is a letter I’m sending in response.
I’m advising you and any and all agents of yours to stop trespassing and harassing me on the property I rent and possess at xxxxx main st Your city 92222. I further advise you that as tenant in possession of the property. You have sold your right of possession to me. And with that comes the implied warranty of the covenant of quiet enjoyment which you have continuously violated this warranty over all the years I’ve been here. By coming to the property with no notice and no reason and would wonder the property till you find me and then try touching groping me inappropriately. Also Your actions of giving part of my property to your friend and locking me out and giving 24 hour access of my property to your friends who hold the only key to the chain and lock you put on my driveway is a breach of our agreement and a violation of the law. I advise you to correct this immediately.
As far as allowing people to park on the property is at my discretion I do not charge or sublet to anyone. Any vehicle in my driveway is a friend/family visitor and does not concern you. I have the right to allow guests and visitors or whoever I would like to park in my driveway.
To address the accusation of my subletting to John Doe is completely fabricated. This individual pays rent to you Fred Smith for a truck and trailer on the property behind my house. So why would he sublet from me when he already rents from you? I allow this individual to park in my driveway because I am disabled and don’t drive and he takes me for shopping and any appointment I have. I believe This harassment with multiple types of retaliatory eviction notices. Like evicting or terminating every possible way and hoping one sticks. And they are not served properly is an effort to just intimidate me and is an effort to perform a constructive eviction. And I would like you to stop harassing me please.
Im number 23 on the volusia county waiting list and i need to know if they will allow my 23 yr old son and my 19 yr old daughter to live with me. they both work but they also help me and my other daughter because we are both disabled. should i tell them. i really dont know what to do because my kids can not make it on their own, they dont make enough money.
If you decided to tell them it with be your in come and youngest daughter son and daughter…you will count your income for 12 month each for you and daughter…
Son pay by gross times 26 weeks no weekly and same with daughter…
M
Now if your 22 or 19 is a full time students in school its not counted against your household income…it will be off just you and youngest…
Rotten and unfair as it seems, you have to tell the Housing Authority if you have Section 8. I’ve found out the hard way. I was seeing someone and the building manager claims the person lives here because they have spent too many nights in a 12 month period (No more than 12 consecutive and 21 in a 12 month period). We’d spend one or two nights per week together, and it was so nice not to be alone. This year I’ll be seventy and believe me this is extremely traumatic. I was not aware of these rules until after I was served papers, and then began to research it. Can you imagine being put on the street at 70? Yes, you have to tell your PHA about your son and daughter. It is very likely your rent will increase, but that is better than the alternative I face. Best of luck to you.
You and your daughter, who are on disability, are the only ones that are allowed to live together. The working family members are responsible for getting their own place, not join you with your voucher. Remember, your rent is calculated according to your ability to pay: generally 1/3 of your income minus utility allowance. In many cases, instead of paying rent, the family may get paid a check call a utility allowance payment or a UAP check
I live in state housing. I asked management permission to have my brother stay over night for less than 14 days and she staright out said no. I did however explained that he was in a crisis where he is living now and this would be only for a few days.
I live in California and am on section 8 with a roommate we have had issues since may and since then she has barley stayed here. Maybe 5 times a month and that’s it. I have notified the office and they are saying as long as she still has mail being sent here she “lives” here. I can’t find anywhere about rules on this. If you are on section 8 how many days are you required to satay a month. It is no where on my lease about that. I did read about how you can’t have a guest for more than 14 consecutive days and not more that 21 days in a year. But nothing on someone actually living in the house hold.
I moved from out of State to California ,my auntie let me my and girlfriend and my four kids come stay with her .She’s on SECTION-8 .We have been living in her house for 6months plus we have California id’s with her address on it , we have mail coming from the county and etc my kids have mail coming to from school. She haven’t reported us living with her we pay rent every month and have the money order recipes and now she’s trying kick us out because she wants more money..What can I do I need answer fast please ppls real answers that can help .How can I report her because she’s have gotten money hungry????!!!!!!
Are you working? There might be a waitlist but can you not apply for assistance yourself?
You should honestly be ashamed of yourself. You been getting away with living with your Aunt and now wanna mess her up because she has had enough of you living with her. You been waiting to set this poor lady up along time ago. You knew exactly what you being doing by getting ids with her address. Just move and leave that poor lady alone.
You should be ashamed with your stupid comment, First off she’s not tripping over us staying there.Second she’s getting money hungry trying have me pay her whole rent ,plus food plus her electric bill, so you tell me who’s getting the bad end of the stick buddy .We can’t even save up to move .And third we needed id’s to get a job so please mind you business tuna fish
It was nice enough she let you and your family stay with her. Even if she asking for more an more money to live there, why would you be rotten and snitch her out for her even taking chance of losing her voucher. Nobody is forcing you to stay there. If your salty cause you dont have the money to pay rent and security deposit to get your own place and maybe she is tired of not having her own place to herself then raised rent so you will leave. Its rotten as can be of you to be a low life snitch to report her. She did not force you to live there an was kind enough to let you there for even one night even if raises rent $1000 a day. How can you live with yourself trying to report her just cause you cant afford her rent. Grow up and get your own place. Nasty to not mind your own business when you leached off her place cause you couldnt or didnt get your own place. Karma gonna get your ungrateful as$
Shut the fuck Ryan!!! When have you been in this person shoes?? People ALWAYS being opionated without having evidence or facts!! Fucking idiot. Just because someone allowed a relative to stay these insane relatives ALWAYS renigging on some stuff like ALWAYS! It’s not about snitching it’s about right being right and wrong being wrong! Everyone need help every once in a while. I bet your opinionated ass over 25 still living with your parents or living off credit cards scum bag
Dead on.. I hate ungrateful ppl. I can guarantee nobody forced them to live with auntie an she took chance of letting them in house she worked hard to get her voucher an home an they gonna snitch on her after allowing them in since they lived the actions to forced them not to be able to get their own place. Snitches is only one step away from rapists an child molesters. Scum bags that ungrateful anger me even if their rent increased 10x a day. Nobody forced them to be in that situation.
You can tell them she has a entire family living with her paying her rent while she living off the state it’s fraud
I agree It is fraud. Do you know how many people that are out there in that waiting list that need assistance. Her rent might just be $5. The reason she probably let them stay there is to pu money in her pocket
Hi Malik, my advice to you is you should move out with your girlfriend and four kids. because if you in not on the least her apartment you will be in trouble too. find a apartment that cheapest one a till you can stand your feet and rent a nicer one if you save up. Because your auntie try to make more money by kick you guys out and she can rental to some one else. I think a better idea is to find a new place and just go with out her. Good luck and may god bless.
There is nothing you can do…but according to the state law she can give you x amount days to vacate with your personal items
You have knowingly created a fraud to the state all of you- because she has not ever claimed you once past 21 days and you have no right to be there and you know the law. All a bio;ation of Housing section 8 LAWS.. I do however her your plight, she must be left on her own and you cannot violate the residence further- she has every right to evict you also. She will lose her housing and will be homeless all because you decided to take advantage of her, which also is an elderly abuse. if she is 65 or older All looks bad,, but is regular law.
You are all committing fraud to the United States government and you should move out immediately or face the risk of going to jail. If the HA finds out your dear Aunt greedy will loose her housing permentally and will be made to pay full rent if she can ever rent again. Breaking the law isn’t good especially with the goverment.you are extremely stupid and uneducated and ignorance of the law doesn’t give you a reason to break it. If you don’t believe me plead your case to legal aid office before they lock you up.
You are going to report your Auntie who took you and your girlfriend and 4 kids in? Here is a real answer- Get a job. Get two. Stop living off other people or the system. And for God’s sake, don’t have any more kids you cant afford!
Malik, just having you there for more than 12 consecutive days she can lose her Section 8. If you are paying her money even NOT for rent, just to cover groceries, etc, that is still a violation. If you are discovered by the landlord or Housing Authority she may well lose her Sec 8. If you try to report that she is gouging for more money you will be exposing the whole arrangement. You need to get your own place, PRONTO! Good luck.
When’s voucher is given, is it strictly for the person on the voucher our is it intended for spouse as well? A tenant has the voucher in her name only. And she is the only one on the lease. Her husband lives with her. Legal? Report it? And she has a dog who my lawyers have given ‘cure’ letters for. I don’t want this mess…
Stfu man. Let ppl live in matrimony stop being demons its already hard enough in this world. “It is not good that man be alone”
Shush man. Let ppl live in matrimony stop being demons its already hard enough in this world. “It is not good that man be alone”
My ex daughter in law lives in a 2-3 bedroom section 8 apartment (by herself). One of her kids (not my biological grandson) spent a few years in juvenile detention. He lived with her afterwards until he turned 18, at which time she made him move “so she wouldn’t lose her section 8”. Meanwhile her younger son (my biological grandson) lived with me for the last 12 years. He’s now 20 and could afford to help pay her rent but she claims she would lose her sec. 8. Is it true, in Mass., that your own child cannot move in with you? Or would it just require an approval from section 8?
Any family members you want to add to your voucher must be approved by S8 before they move in. Tenant submits a form to S8 and they will approve or deny. One of my tenants added his college aged daughter to his voucher.
I currently receive mail at someone’s house whose receiving section 8 in the state of California. Can they lose their voucher because if it?
YES!
When a person gets a voucher they sign a responsibility agreement. If someone alerts the authorities that some one other than the voucher holder is receiving mail at the address the housing authority can search DMV databases as well as the postal service.
It’s true! PHA may allow him to move in, but they must be told and the rent will be adjusted according to your grandson’s income. At least that is hoe I read the cold, cold rules.
My mother currently lives in a 1BR Section 8 apartment in the state of Ohio. A neighbor of hers has a son from Indiana who had fallen on hard times, and he had nowhere to go. She moved him in with her. The man is a 40 year old convicted felon, drug addict, and overall con man. Long story short, my widowed mother took pity on the guy and they developed an intimate relationship. When she realized the man was a thief and swindler she broke it off. Everyone was upfront from the beginning with the manager of the building about his presence. She wasn’t concerned, until the guy started stalking my mom and harassing her. He walked around the building drunk, high on pills, and screaming at my mothers windows. She and several other residents are afraid now. The manager was told how the situation had changed and that my mother felt she was in clear and imminent danger. The guy was told to leave, and he did, for 2 weeks. Now he’s back and hiding at his moms. How can we get this man out FOR GOOD? (I guess it wasn’t such a short story after all, I apologize)
She broke up with him because he was a swindler & thief, but it was ok that he was a felon, con man and drug addict?
She can file for a Restraining order, but if he wants to be vindictive he can report her to the housing authority.
Thank you for replying Yvette! As much as I hate to admit it about my mother, she’s a very naive woman. She believed with her whole heart he had made a change in himself and was piecing his life back together. It didn’t last too long. And he never stole from her, turns out he’d stolen from his own mother (insert eye roll).
Anyhow, I guess the manager finally took this seriously and has given his mother an eviction notice for keeping him there. So they’ll both have to leave in “30 days”. I hope that’s what will come of it all. I hope this is just a hard late in life lesson for my mom, and she can move on a little wiser. She’s staying with my husband and I until next month.
… and that’s the problem with having unauthorized guests that never leave. The majority of the time they will find someone to bunk with because they can’t qualify for their own lease. I’m a landlord and I’ve already given one S8 tenant the boot and I told a second tenant that his gf had to hit the road too
Sorry just Searching and seen this .if you have a section 8 voucher in California is it possible to add your sibling to your housing voucher if he’s of age and works or can you only add on a spouse or boyfriend ?
Well, we stay in the NC, and my aunt was reported by someone that she had her boyfriend staying with her since she had joined the state program PHA. I hoped my aunt has not lied about her boyfriend staying with her because then she will have to prove everything that she told them. I know her boyfriend has lived with her for over 10 years and she never added him to her lease. Someone reported her to PHA and I believe she is being watched by PHA officers. I am praying for her because she doesn’t have proof of him living elsewhere and plus he works. She never added him to her lease nor his income. I feel she is in big trouble. My aunt is not talking to me because I do know a lot about her situation but I didn’t report her to PHA. I think one of her visitors reported her because they had gotten into a disagreement about something. She has not seen her since and now all of a sudden PHA wants to speak with my aunt about a letter that came to their office on Monday (3/26/2018). Can someone please email me about what they might do to my aunt for not reporting my boyfriend living with her and his income for over 10 years. What will happen to her?
They can actually make her pay every penny that they paid on her behalf for the past 10 years and she’ll lose her voucher for good. They don’t mess around. Not a good as pot to be in.
I would vote for her to file for the restraining order; hasn’t she already reported the matter to the manager? If he’s no longer staying with her, he can’t affect her. I could be wrong but given what I’m dealing with in getting this tenant out who has violated multiple Section 8 rules as well as my lease rules, it’s only taken many months just to get Section 8 to investigate. Good luck.
My gf is in the process of getting HUD I’m a convicted felon with drug charges .I want to move into the house and be put on the lease will that void her HUD or stop her from getting it .the reason why is cause I’m trying to get my son in the home as well to get him out of a bad situation.would she still be eligible for HUD and would I be able to get on the lease without voiding her HUD
@Daniel – your gf will lose her voucher.
Hi Daniel. You did something wrong but you paid your debt to society. Therefor I feel that they shouldn’t be able to hold that convicted felon label over your head anymore. Good luck to you.
It depends on the felony — violent & sexual offenses are prohibited.
@yvette, will my aunt be evicted from the program because she didn’t report her boyfriend and his income to PHA and they found out about it. She has an appointment with PHA on Monday. She thinks she can say whoever written a letter about her was lying. I told her they will probably investigate her now because she didn’t report her boyfriend’s income or him living there. They can found out this stuff without her telling them anything. Can you please tell me what you think PHA will do to her for not reporting nor adding her boyfriend to her lease and his income. He has lived with her for 10 years and nobody was suspicious of that at all, now they will be aware of her man living there. Can she just add him to her lease now?
She will have to request you and your son be added to the voucher and you both will have to apply to the Housing Authority. Her rent will go up accordingly. If either of you just move in without going through the process it is entirely likely she will lose the Sec-8. If you and your son move elsewhere, remember you can only spend 21 days (only 12 consecutive days) TOTAL with your girlfriend in a 12 MONTH period. Good luck.
Daniel I’m a convicted felon and I have HUD. I was able to add my ex and so is he. I think your felony has to be 5 years or more to be eligible.
Wow, this is my question. My Husband is a convicted felon his felony is 20 years old. He will be released this November. I would like to add him to my lease so we can raise our daughter together. What is your advice. Btw I live in Florida. He has a gun charge and assault charge, both from 1999
How do I report someone on section 8 who has multiple people living in the house when she is the only person supposed to be there
contact local section 8?
Report to the Section 8 office. In my situation, I reported her directly to the caseworker who initially wrote her up for having an unauthorized dog in the unit. Yes, that was one of the issues but the unauthorized people spending the night were the bigger issue. Took going above to the supervisor and the program manager to get that addressed. Now still trying to get her out. Getting ready to provide security video footage of the activity.
you sally – are scummy and need to detach yourself from feeling all mighty and mind ur own business – this is america damn you
Whatever and god bless you
Yes, and in America, the person is stealing – both from the government and from the landlord. I have a unit rented to someone with a 2 BR voucher for her and her disabled son for whom she gets disability, food stamps, no more – but the son doesn’t even live with her. Meanwhile, the boyfriend, a convicted felon not on the lease – and a bunch of others are living in there, running up the water bill, wear and tear on the apartment, and dealing drugs.
@Chris — just give her notice to vacate at the end of the lease or sooner if you can prove the unauthorized people.
I like the way you think. I totally agree. The world would be a much more peaceful place if people would just mind their own business and stop trying to get others in trouble. We should be helping each other not causing trouble. Its sad that we have so many people among us who get off seeing others suffer.
I understand the MYOB, however, as a taxpayer they are living off of my HARD EARNED money. There are truly people in this country that honestly need Section 8. IMO some mom who is running a daycare from that dwelling and has her 2 adult children living with her, with neither of her adult children working ( maybe one is). The mother will use someone else’s disability tag for her car…..she’s extremely overweight (why I think she wants the tag). Get off your arses and get a job. Hanging out in your house ALL day, is not a job…..heck my parrot can do that.
Another neighbor has a job, however, she also has a grand-daughter (school age), a twenty+ child living with her who has a 2 year old. So, what’s so terribly wrong with the 20+ daughter getting a job? They have daycare vouchers.
I suppose my only solace will be when the Section 8 recipients have to have a hair follicle test done before they can begin to THINK about abusing OUR rights.
They are not RIGHTS they are privileges. That’s what’s wrong with this up coming generation. We are producing a bunch of self entitled pricks that think these are RIGHTS and everyone owes them something. We dont owe you anything.
Enough of the freeloaders, addicts, scammers, illegals and snowflakes always looking to gain something from taxpayers. Yes this is America..don’t like it..GET THE F*** OUT. CALL SECTION 8 ADMIN AND REPORT THEM ALL.
One hundred thumbs up Sectac!!!!!!!!!
Everyone pays taxes kid. God owns this world,you don’t
Stop being a snitch Sally God don’t like ugly
Peter Pan,
That is not snitching. What the tenant is doing is committing fraud, against both the property owner and the program. The owner has more wear and tear on the property, higher utility expenses and more. The one I just evicted had a boyfriend who was a multiple offense felon on parole who is not allowed in Section 8 funded housing, not to mention the others she had “visiting”. There is a reason for these rules – amongst other things, protects the owner and the other tenants in the building.

There is a reason for these rules – amongst other things, protects the owner and the other tenants in the building.
Besides your moral outrage, how is this affecting your life. How will causing an already poor person to become homeless make your life better? Hmm?
How do I report unauthorized occupants in section 8 housing? The actual recipient is in jail (and has been for months and will be indefinitely) and is receiving section 8 benefits while living in a cell. The people living in qualified recipients apartment are essentially living there free.
Call your county’s HUD office and tell them you’d like to report a lease violation. 🙂
I live in Florida and have a friend in New York who has section 8. I am on the waiting list for a voucher. My friend was wondering if she moved here if we would be able to share a place. We are both disabled and on SSI. Thank You for your help.
I have a relative that threatens to report me to section 8 if I throw them out. What can I do.
Kick them out anyway and take the chance if its not safe for them to be there with your children do it and just have the hearing and explain everything to them
Throw them out! You’ll be doing what is required of you. Have you charged them rent? That is another can of worms. But if not, give ’em the boot. If you don’t, you put your Sec-8 at risk.
Hi I live in Florida. I just got section 8 ioved in and my bf came over. He spent the night and won’t leave! What should I do to get him to leave. He said he isn’t going anywhere and he will tell the cops he lives here.
How long has he been living there in the state of fl if he has been there more then 30 days he lives there but what you can do is put an order on him and if doesn’t get any mail at your house the bills are in your name he has to go point blank period but when you get the order he can’t be around you and make sure you put it for every where your job kids school daycare your parents house and that if in public like Walmart he can not be within 100ft of you or your kids
If he has been there for more than 30 days they can say he has squatters rights and lives there if you are the only one on the rental agreement you would have to evict him legally.my relative is on section 8 and her boyfriend did the same thing to her
I lived with a sister in law for over 30 days, paid rent via money order for her open den area, will this affect the section 8.
It could possible affect it
YEP!
My little sister who is a full-time college student lived with my mother and was on the s8 voucher. My mother reported it and she was still kept on it, but recently our mother passed away and s8 made my sister HOH. Now the apt complex is telling her she can’t stay because of a no full-time college student law. Does she just lose it? Haven’t been able to get in touch with S8 about it and we’re just finding out about this law.
Is this a real law? But no she can move to another house or apt and keep the voucher the apt just has to say they are letting you out the lease and why
I get section 8 and my son moved in with me, I told section 8 and they said thats not allowed without their permission, ,, what happens now ,?, they told me Ill get a letter in the mail,
Technically your supposed to report it it to them but which you did so just review the sec 8 guidelines and make sure you did everything right
My other question is, the new place is in the same city. And my reasons for wanting to move are mostly having to defend my self from manager and other personel and there are some other reasons but I can’t list them here. I’m under much stress and have very high blood pressure, and have had heart surgery
What if I would like to move to a different area, and the new building is owned by the same owners, am I allowed to if say I pay a new security deposit, could I move
Yes as long as you have a good rental history with the landlord, why would they deny you?
Can two people, both receiving Section 8 vouchers, use them to rent one apartment together?
Savvy analysis . I Appreciate the specifics ! Does anyone know if I would be able to find a template NY OSC AC 3290-S version to type on ?
Hi KALYN MCKAY! my partner edited a template FannieMae Guide Underwriting DU form here
http://goo.gl/37l8DKwhat if a son 18 moves out and down the road he needs help and mom says yes to help 2weeks. he brings his girlfriend and his buddy, 2weeks passes and wont leave and threatens to bring in cops cuz a 30 day notice is required. by law he says .because he doesnt want to leave . what then
What a cretin and a creep. Their bullying is terrorizing mom and that is abuse. She needs a restraining order against him and his crew, and then call the cops if he tries anything. Mom said two weeks. If he won’t leave when mom asks, he is not gonna convince a judge he has a legitimate 30-day residency.
Is there a rule against how much someone visit if they don’t stay overnight? And what if they came at 3pm every day and left by 11pm? Is that considered living there? Please Reply” Thank you!
as long as they are not sleeping there, it should be fine. you are allowed visitors.
What happened to personal rights? As long as I pay my rent on time I should be able to have as many friends visit as I want. And If I want to let someone stay with me it should be up to me! Its my apartment! I pay my bills! If I have a friend in need I should be able to help my friend!
You can, as long as the government is not helping to pay your rent. If they are, they make the rules.
So poor and disabled people don’t have the same rights as the wealthy. So much for “All men are created equal! I guess us poor and disabled people are second class citizens!
Your logic doesn’t make any sense. No one is saying the poor and disabled don’t have the same rights. Of course they do.
But if someone is paying your rent (i.e. the government), and they have specific rules that come along with that payment, then you have 2 choices. 1 – Don’t accept the money. or 2 – Accept the money and the stipulations that it entails.
One of their stipulations is that no one else is allowed to live in the apartment except for the people in your immediate family or otherwise approved by them.
Pretty reasonable.
No not pretty reasonable. Sounds like more class warfare to me. The wealthy can do whatever they want but the poor are given a bunch of rules to live by. Its not my fault I was born with disabilities which have left me financially challenged. I’m a free man and should have all the rights of any other free man. I could understand if I were a convicted criminal but I not. I’m am an American. Next you faschest bastards will be trying to tell me how to spend my disability check.
David – I’m sorry to hear of your disabilities and financial challenges. Being a “free” and “american” person does not entitle you to free housing with no rules. Sorry, it’s just not the way the world works.
Instead of complaining, maybe you should be thankful that you live in a country that allows someone less fortunate (like yourself) the ability to live in a government subsidize apartment. Otherwise you’d be on the street.
Screw you Nelson Rosen!
Ha. Nice retort.
I agree with you, but on section 8 you have no rights, You can NOT live a normal life on section 8 ,,, If you get too much company,,,,,or let someone stay with you for a few months/weeks , you will be kicked off it,,,and they say you owe them money yet,,,,,They really need to REFORM section 8, ,Cause I believe they violate our personal rights,,,, I know a few people who went off it,,, because they were tired of being threatened by section 8,
David, you can help them for 12 consecutive days and a total of 21 days in 12 months. After that you cannot help any longer without putting your Sec-8 in jeopardy. Unfair as it seems your friend has to get it together FAST and leave your place, or you risk losing your housing.
My daughter came to spend the night and they are accusing me of her living here and she doesn’t I even gave them proof of her address and they are wanting me to either take a 15 day termination or voluntarily give my 30 day notice but I have not got anyone living with me can they do this
She came to spend one night and they right away sent a 15 day? Must be missing something…
My bf and I have section 8. He has 2 girls from a previous marriage. Can we add the girls to our section 8? Their mother is not on section 8 and they have joint custody, but the girls are unable to come and stay since we only have the 1 bedroom (living room floor is not okay with the mother for them to sleep on, witb reason). They used to spend 2 nights a week with him before we moved in together, but when he moved in my apartment will not allow that many nights in 1 month unless they are added to the lease. So lost on what we can do, as we can’t afford a larger place without section 8.
Does anyone know how much income you can have if you move in with another person on section 8 ?
Can someone explain, Portability of the section 8 program ? Does all section 8 have Portability to another area,
I currently live in a privately owned apartment, that gets section 8 subsidy from hud, and I want to port to another City and state, can I do this and keep my housing assistance
If YOU are not a voucher holder, you can’t port anywhere.
If you ARE a voucher holder, then you can port to any city and state that is currently accepting ports as long as you file the correct paperwork and receive acceptance from both HA’s.
Wow. I was just turned in by my slumlord for having my boyfriend stay@ my apartment for most of the past 6 months >> 1st 4 months, until he got a new apartment, because he has lung cancer & lived over the ovens, grills, oil & grease of a pizza shop. He was peeing, barfing & pooping blood until he began staying @ my much heal Section 8 apartment. Then I got sick 2 months ago & he’s been helping me out. Right now, he has no income so his financial “benefit” 2 me is nil. I am having a difficult time comprehending where how why these rules apply in health care situations. Talk to me please, somebody. Thank you.
That’s nothing mines threathing to report us cause coincidentally we had a visitor visiting us the two times she came and she said she would report us to section 8 now I can’t have friends visit me cause she assumes they live with my family. Im requesting moving papers ASAP!!
my grown son was staying with me for 2 weeks, he has his own income,,I thought I would do the right thing and talk to section 8 about him moving in,,I told them he was staying here for 2 weeks,,,they sent me a termination letter,, because I was suppose to ASK them first before letting him stay here,,I did not know that
I have my section 8 briefing tomorrow am I able to add 4 more ppl to my voucher with me in my two children
How do you add someone to your section 8? If they leave your place, do they get to keep they’re section 8 and go anywhere that takes section 8?
You have to inform your local Housing Authority within 30 days. Also it will come up in your annual recertification papers
I need to know how to report a person for welfare and housings fraud in Pa. How do I do that?
i have a tenant who keeps bringing guests that never leave
Report them! Report them all! We the people need to hold the Section 8 thugs and slumlords that ignore their lawbreaking accountable. Law-abiding homeowners are under risk from these people who think they are above the law. Put these scofflaws back in their place-anywhere away from good people who worked for what they own.
Dear M. Garcia: “thugs”? I have Section 8. Met a man w/lung cancer who lived above a pizza shop > all kinds of grease in the air > that got in2 his & my lungs = made us both sick. I took him in2 my apartment FOR HEALTH REASONS for 4 months not knowing about Section 8 visitor rules. Got reported by the downstairs neighbors. Then I GOT SICK, unable to function daily. Turn about is fair play ,> he’s been helping me but I moved temporarily in2 his apartment = Section 8 paying for an apartment in which I am currently not staying. QUESTION: do our health problems make me a “thug”? Please advise. Thank you.
Are cinvicted felons not allowed on property deemed section 8 housing? This question is in illinois. Im having trouble finding visitor guidelines.
