Ms. T -- they're going to ask for your Social (if I recall), and when you give in your bank statements, they often follow up by calling the bank itself to see if you haven't doctored your info. I wouldn't recommend blanking anything, accordingly. I know it's incredibly invasive, but those are the breaks.

Yes, you can not blank anything out. In fact, if your statement includes a blank page (usually marked, "This page intentionally left blank") you have include that too.

Since identity theft is a real problem, as seen by the Hunter's Point debacle, I suggest you get a credit monitoring service or lock down your credit by other means when this is all over.

Just went to the interview for the 1 or 2 bedroom apartment lottery number 5XX I hope this falls through, I have to finalize my paper work and then they will say if we qualify. If I fall in both brackets they are allowing applicants to pick between a one bedroom or two since its my daughter and I.


Wish everyone luck,


Cristal

Does anybody know if they contact your bank directly after you hand in your paperwork ?

still waiting havent heard anything yet, I am trying my hardest to be patient but we REALLY need this apartment. This is our best shot and by far our lowest log number and we do not qualify for most of them because our income is too "high".

Yes, they contact your bank directly and any other financial institution you have an account with. You sign a release form, saying that you authorize release of the information, and it's sent on. Same with the IRS.

They don't actually contact the IRS or banks unless they have reason to believe something's fishy, though.

If they make you sign a 4506T form allowing them to get your tax transcript then they'll get it.
