Can anyone explain what this means?

Changes to household composition on a submitted application that affect
eligibility will not be recognized, unless such change is due to an extenuating
circumstance. Extenuating circumstances may include but are not limited to:
a. Death of a member of the household;
b. Birth in the household;
c. Separation or divorce;
d. Court order of custody;
e. Domestic violence

Basically whoever was on the application needs to be part of the family when it's time to interview and move in unless one of these reasons is the reason they aren't there.

Ok, so if household size hasn't changed and composition hasn't changed; i.e, same two people, then we're good to the regulations? Because if that's the case, my appeal should be a slam dunk

If you haven't yet submitted your appeal, make sure you check section 5-3(A)(b) of the HDC marketing guidelines and submit proof establishing that the two of you "are financially interdependent, as indicated by (i) current leases or utility records demonstrating a shared address, or (ii) documentation, such as bank accounts, demonstrating shared assets."

I see it more as if they win the apartment. They most likely don't really care about posting online anymore since they got what they wanted.

Or if they get rejected, they're too pissed off to post.

Either way, the wanting to post kind of shifts as you get near the final stretch. Once I won my unit, I didn't post in my thread as much. And as other people from the same thread won, I haven't seen many posts from them, either.

I guess some think it's taboo, and some may not to "rub it in anyone's" face. I can think of loads of reasons, but NDA wasn't one of them.

At least it wasn't when I was at my lease signing. I think it's helpful so others can gage where they are on the list since it goes in order.

Did you look at the unit? They postponed ours. No other info. Just said "Not yet."

We're scheduled to see a couple units tomorrow. After that, I believe our application goes to the Leasing Office, Compliance, and HDC.
