I responded to an affordable housing development ad which stated they were accepting additional applications for current vacancies and for their waitlist. During our interview, we were informed that we were being placed on the waitlist. My bank called me today to verify that they can share my info with the affordable housing management company. Does this mean there may be a vacancy or do they normally vet prospective tenants before placing them on the waitlist?
If anyone is curious about which development, it's 89 Murray.
They usually don't bother (b/c they'd have to reverify again later anyway), but some of these agencies are so cartoonishly incompetent that you can't be certain.

Ah. I was hoping there was some (fairly) consistent pattern but I would not be surprised if there isn't one. Thanks!
Why would they have to have the bank verify? Did you provide all of the documentation?
I also interviewed and was told there was vacancies coming up. What Log number are you?

Best of LUCK!
I provided them with copies of all the documentation required on that extensive list they gave me for the interview including bank statements from the bank they contacted. We're a one-income household. Perhaps they wanted to verify that my husband and I weren't hiding income?
Did your interviewer mention which sized apartment? My log number is 1805. Best of luck to you as well!

While looking through my emails for my log number, I came across correspondence from another building by Related (Hunters Point South) that I applied to during a call to replenish their waitlist. They were way more transparent in this instance. I applied on September 26, 2018 and was automatically put on the waitlist without having to go to through the interview or providing any sort of documentation other than the application. On January 17, 2019, I received an email about an availability accompanied with a floorplan of the unit and a request to schedule a time to view it. The apartment was too small for us so I didn't follow through.
Related doesn't appear to have a consistent way of doing things.
@whirelpeas0 I called twice for clarification around the requirements before my interview. The first time I called the lady said it was for a 1 bedroom apartment, when I called the second time the lady said my application was for a 2 bedroom. We def. need a 2 bedroom as we have a 6 year old. During my interview I didn't bring it up, just hoping for the best now.
Figures crossed we'll be neighbors soon!
