Q & A Eligibility

Question: If you offer a resident an apartment and they are not able to move in until the first of the month, but you have someone on the wait list that is able to move-in now, which one does the apartment go to?? ~ Joy in Texas

Answer: You must always offer the unit to the person at the top of the list (unless you are skipping due to Income Targeting, as described in your Tenant Selection Plan).  What was your unit offer?  If your unit offer was to move in on the 15^th, and the applicant refuses, your Tenant Selection Plan indicates whether the household keeps its place on the list, goes to the bottom of the list or is removed from the list.  If the applicant refuses the offer, then you can offer the unit to the next person on the list.
