I don't even remember applying to this and when I checked my emails apparently I applied in 2018? My log #5XX. Has anyone else been getting requested to submit paperwork for older lotteries? This also happened to me with the Urban.

On friday I was contacted for 4 lotteries all 130% AMIs.

This happens when people move out and there are re-rentals available. If you checked off in Housing Connect that you'd be interested in re-rental opportunities they can contact you even though you never applied in the original lottery. What they do is pull a list of income eligible people from Housing Connect, randomize them and then call them to submit as they go through the list. Tends to be far more common for the 130 and 165AMI groups.

Yeah I viewed the apartment yesterday and the bedroom was a shoe box. My current apartment is bigger and cost less so I'm going to pass. Thank you for explaining the re-rentals - I didn't know that was a thing.
