I was in the shelter 1 year 3 months before I received my referral. However, I got the letter that my priority changed to N0, W1 February 6, 2015 and even though I have contacted DHS and NYCHA I am still here in the shelter. No answers to my inquiries, nothing. I no longer have a housing specialist, all 3 I've had either left or were fired and I am not getting any help. There are 20 people that got their letters from NYCHA, before and after me, and no one has had an interview, contact or moved. It is now September.

I hope they are faster and more helpful to you then they have been to me and my family. I wish you luck.

I applied for NYCHA 9/2016. I was called in for an interview 12/10/2017. I was certified for a 3 bedroom on 12/13/2017. I'm currently on the Bronx Borough wide waiting list with a N0 W0 prefence. I wonder how long this part of the process will take. Has there been any progress? Anyone know where I can find the waiting list for a 3 bedroom in the Bronx?
