Sign Up for the New NYC Housing Connect!
Starting in July 2020, all new affordable housing opportunities will be available on a new version of NYC Housing Connect.
The new website will make the affordable housing application process easier, more accessible, and user-friendly.
Sign up and create a new account on desktop and laptop computers and Android devices, and on iOS devices very soon. All devices can now access the new website.
Note: If you had an account on the original NYC Housing Connect, your applicant profile will not be carried over to the new website.
I did too. I signed up and entered all my info.
It is a nicer site indeed.
Too bad they couldn't figure out a way to have all those registered on the old site automatically transferred to the new site.
WHY tho? WHAT's wrong with the first one, and how it's structured? WHY don't people get the gist of put your information in, submit and wait?
the inefficiency of the original site is bogged down by so many people that apply even tho they don't qualify. sifting through all the rejects slows down the process. Not sure if this is true, but i think you're allowed to update your information if some changes occur, like your income, before they reach your log number. this would help folks that changed AMI but still qualify for the same development.
Also the current site (the one being replaced) was not functional on many browsers, including Safari. I would get timed out repeatedly on my IOS devices. The new site seems to be working just fine on various browsers and the speed is on point.
I see no open lotteries yet, is that correct or am I doing something wrong?
No, that is correct. They have not put any listings up as yet even though the alert at the top of the website says they will start posting developments beginning this month in July. So check it periodically but there are also still a lot of developments listed on the old housing connect website that can still be applied to.
