Hey guys! I know y’all have been asked a million times before in this thread but I figured I will still ask. I received an email on Jan 8th stating I was ineligible for 572 eleventh Ave apartments. The reason being I make to much for the 40% income bracket for 1 person and don’t make enough for the 60% income bracket due to the income I had on file while working with a previous employer. I no longer work for that employer and the employer I have now I make much less. I mailed out my appeal on Thursday with the documents they asked for. I just want to know how long will it take to hear back from them regarding my appeal and how long before I call to follow up with them?

Sign up for an account on CreditKarma.com and it will let you know when and who runs a credit check on you. It did for me at the beginning of the week.

One thing I found in the flurry of activity finally this week on my application for an apartment was that one should really keep their Housing Connect profile up-to-date. I had neglected to remove a bank account that I had closed in 2017 so I had to get a letter from that bank saying I had closed that account and the date I had closed it. I also got rejected off the bat for another project because I hadn't updated my income in Housing Connect, although I would have declined the opportunity anyway since the rent was above my maximum budget so I didn't appeal.

I'd recommend contacting and working with a Housing Ambassador - you can find listings for them here: https://www1.nyc.gov/site/hpd/renter...bassadors.page

Default Next Steps

Hi,

I've been working with St. Nicks Alliance, My inital interview was 12/10 and they've sent my application to the "city" since 12/16. My anxiety is getting the best of me lol. Does anyone have any idea how long its gonna take for the city to approve the application. They've asked me for two more documents to be signed this week so i'm just wondering . Also for people who have already won lotteries apartments, Do you sign the lease the same day or is it before??
