NYCHA Interview .......
I recently apply for public housing for myself and my 2 Year old son. I apply regular and for the Staten Island Outreach program. i receive a letter in the mail about 2 days ago asking me to come in NOV 3 2009 for a Interview. After i give in all the papers, what is the next step? How much longer do i have to wait for an apartment. What is the safest complex in Staten island.
Will they approve me for a 1 or 2 bedroom since my son is 2 years old.

the safest would probably be todt hill or south beach. marhkam gardens is safe too but its close to new brighton which is very bad. along with mariners harbor, richmond terrace, and stapleton, those 4 are the worst on staten island.

After the initial interview they'll mail you a list of vacancies in the boroughs you chose. After you choose your application is then fwded to that specific development of your choice and be put on their waiting list - which can be from 2 months to a few years (!), depending on what development you choose. Since you have a 2 yr old boy, you most likely will be a 2 bdrm apt.
