Once Rental/NAHASDA application is processed and placed on the waiting list and a unit becomes available the waiting list would be screened and applicant will be called to do a LIHTC application in person.

Application for LIHTC is done in person and cannot be mailed out, if further assistance is needed arrangements can be made to complete the application accordingly.

As long as the Rental/NAHASDA application has been completed and all required documents have been received, no further documents required all income is verified through 3rd party verification.
