So I’ve recently crossed the 1 year mark in my lottery unit, but I haven’t been asked to submit recertification documents at all.. I went back into the welcome documentation they gave me when I moved in and it said that I would receive a package with instructions 120 days prior to the anniversary of my initial certification... but that never arrived.
They did remember to schedule an annual apartment inspection for next week though...
Should I be more proactive about getting the recertification documents in? What should I do? I also had a roller coaster of a year where I was unemployed for months but was able to finally land a higher paying job.. one that is higher than the maximum income limit for the unit. Not super concerned since I’m fairly certain that it shouldn’t matter. But what sort of documents do they ask for the recertification? Just a tax return? W2’s?
EDIT: also realizing they haven’t asked/charged me for this years amenity fee either...

God this system is so ridiculous... just so I know their motivation... if I get booted from the unit for something small like a deadline will they need to fill the unit with another below market tenant or can they bring the unit up to market price?
They will ask you for many of the same docs you needed to get the apartment, so be prepared & organized, but once you get the hang of it, it isn't too hard. I would wait for them to contact you, I always try to schedule our appointment late so its every 13 months approximately. Don't worry about fluctuating income, it does not really matter- just have all the documentation in place(tax return, pay stubs(6), check acct statements(6),etc.
