So I’m in Fairfield ca and they opened up the applications march 4th-6th for pbv housing (section 8) and the housing authority did a lottery randomized pick of the liter type of situation. Friday may 15th I received an email from Tanya Tran (housing authority manager) stating I was accepted into the waitlist for 2 different apartments that are supposedly having specific units. My question is too anyone who’s been through this process what’s that waitlist time like?? Do I need 30% of my income for rent?? Do they open up waitlists when they have a specific unit available or only if it becomes available?? I’m a first timer wit this whole thing and doing it by myself
