Hey Everyone,

I’m trying to understand the next steps in the review process- I was selected to submit documents for a lottery in Manhattan over the weekend after applying to countless amounts of lotteries over the last 10 years. I submitted the required documents before the 8/7 deadline( they only were looking for four valid forms of documents: two paystubs, SS Card, and ID..not even bank statements, W2’s or past lease.. which I was surprised because they asked for a lot more when I was selected 8 years ago- which in the end I wasn’t qualified for).

I did hear the sooner you submit your documents, the more chances you’ll get your application processed and possibly the size unit you want( I know they ultimately select the unit for you if approved).

How long after you submit documents does it usually take to hear back from the marketing agent? Also I tried using the email for the marketing agent that Housing Connect provided, but it ended up being an invalid email. I know it’s a waiting game, but I’m open to any and all advice.

NEW EDIT

What happens if you subleased month to month as your last place of residence? Would they just need a signed and notarized letter confirming my residency with payments as proof?

Thanks everyone!
