Hi! I have a question if anyone knows. I had a pretty high log number for this but really wanted this. Me and my fiancé applied. We live separately at home but we’re in the process of moving out hence this lottery. Everything was fine until they asked my fiancé if we share a bank account or hve something with both our names. We don’t have any of that yet so they rejected us based off us not being considered a household. Is this even worth an appeal? Is this the Norm?
I am confused. You were denied for not "being a household?" Are you using both of your incomes together to meet the eligibility for the apartment?
Any updates? - I was contacted last night to confirm eligibility. It was a quick phone call to confirm details on docs submitted. I skipped the viewing part as I've been to the open house twice over the summer and know which units i may be interested in - i hope skipping this part would make the process a bit faster. Will keep everyone posted.

can you schedule a viewing or go to an open house if you haven't submitted documents (or been asked to submit documents)?
Hey! Just a quick update in case anyone else is in the same boat:
I was rejected because my NYCHA Section 8 housing choice voucher wouldn’t cover the cost of the unit. Such a bummer! Wishing you all the best of luck, though!!
Update on my end - rejected because I am over limit based on ResideNY's income calculation. Doesn't sit well with me because I've qualified in the same bracket with 3 other lotteries based on the same information, but my income breakdown is subjective.

I'm sorry to hear that - Are you going to appeal??

I really wanted to apply to this one. I live a few blocks away but I’m in the 60-70 AMI for most lotteries. Hoping some of the other buildings currently being built have space for my family!

If you really want it, please appeal.
