Waiting-list news by email
Get our free emails. If this agency's main Section 8 waiting list opens and we see it, we email the people who signed up here. Some lists close before we can send. To sign up, you take our free benefits check. You give your name and email and answer a few questions. A phone step is optional. Then you see offers from partners. Your information may be shared with or sold to marketing partners. They may also contact you (how we use it). Signing up does not apply for housing or put you on any waiting list.
Because you've turned on a privacy opt-out, we don't offer this sign-up here. Check the agency's own site for openings.
Before and after you apply
- You need a valid email address to use the Applicant Portal. Every past applicant must register again in the new portal.
- Keep your address, phone, email, and household info current in the portal so INLIVIAN can reach you when your name comes up.
- When your application nears the top, the property mails a letter asking all adults in the household to come in for an interview.
- Bring ID plus proof of employment and income when the property calls you in. It will run rental, criminal, and credit checks.
- If you are on the voucher list and cannot log in, email HCVwaitlist@cha-nc.org with your name and the change, or mail it to HCV Wait List Update, P.O. Box 36795, Charlotte, NC 28236.

HUD-reported assistance
These figures are HUD reporting-data snapshots, not a count of openings. Equal inventory and occupied counts do not prove that no future opening is possible. Waiting-list status comes from INLIVIAN, not this dataset.
HUD public housing designation: High Performer. High Performer is HUD's top Public Housing Assessment System category. Under current PHAS rules, the agency earned at least 90% overall and met the minimum score for each assessed indicator. It is an operating assessment, not a customer-review rating.
