Section 8 Application– Who will be screened?

The applicant head, co-head, and all household members age 18 and over, including live-in aides, will be subject to a criminal background check.  Sealed juvenile records will not be reviewed.

The request for a person’s fingerprints will be limited to those situations where there is conflicting information regarding the person’s criminal history or when the law enforcement records center requires the fingerprints for positive identification (e.g. multiple individuals with the same name).  Failure to meet the requirements of the background check will result in the rejection of the applicant.
