Because of COVID, I don't think they are repairing any available apartments. I live near one and I can see several empty apartments, which is unusual. Wonder if people just moved, or they couldn't afford the rent due to job loss.

This must be frustrating. I would try writing to the NYCHA board. Go on the nycha website and there is a section where you can write to the nycha board. Often, things done in writing are more productive than by phone. It might be helpful to you.

So I'll share my experience so far.. I initially applied for Nycha March 2019. I had my interview August 20,2020, got certified on August 28th, 4 room (2 bedroom) in Manhattan. I was selected for an apartment on October 22 & received a letter with the apartment number. I've called the development and same thing you've experience, the management office has an attitude and gives me no real update. Just that I have to wait to be called. I know that they are working just working slower to fix apartments because of covid.
