So nice to see strangers (now neighbors X-D) supporting each other in this way through the whole process. Congrats! I’m glad it all worked out in the end. I applied to this almost 2 years ago and just received an email for an interview on Friday. Been applying to these lotteries for the past decade or so. This is the first time I even hear back. Living here would be a dream come true. Thanks for all the insight provided throughout this thread.

Good Morning All! Question... do you know of any cases where the compliance team approves your application but HPD doesnt?

New light baptist · 02-13-2018, 02:41 PM

I have never heard anything like that but everyone who is applying is not on the blog

It's happened, at least twice that I've heard of.

Hello All,

Anyone already moved in? if so, how is it going?
Any news on the building being registered for mailing?

upperwest11 · 02-13-2018, 05:31 PM

Wow @leann! Good you were on top of it! Did you view your unit yet?

It almost happened to me, after I was approved by the compliance team my papers were submitted to HPD.... Somewhere along the line someone calculated the wrong income from the office, luckily the team must have realized their error and contacted me. I verified the info on my income and I had to provide further proof for HPD.
I ultimately crossed my fingers, Now I'm in!
Its a waiting game while hoping no one makes the slightest error that can deny you.
The best thing I did was call almost everyday and checked all paperwork when heading into the office.
Human Errors happen just be on point.
