And job security these days see touch and go so we don't want to be stuck with rent we can't afford.We will settle for the waitlist and hope a miracle happens. But I have learned my lesson, Municipal employee is on every application now.

I’m sorry to say but I think it’s an excuse for them having bypassed your application maybe by accident. A log number of 43 is good enough to not have needed municipal preference.
So I’m beginning to wonder about log number order processing: In the lottery for City Point in Brooklyn, I had a log number of 9xx but was never called. The thread on city point lottery has people in my same AMI non preference having won apartments with higher log numbers. At the lottery of KB25, people in my same preference and higher log numbers were contacted a good two months earlier than I was. My log number was 2xx. Now, the same thing is happening with the lottery over at 180 Broome, where I am seeing people with a higher log number- non preference being contacted before me. Whether Broome contacts me or not, I think it’s more beneficial to be contacted earlier as one is not left with small studios at 165%.
