If you are evaluated for a unit they will ask about your income. Be prepared to demonstrate your income. Do a search, there are good posts about being self employed and doing the paperwork.

See page 48(?) on self employment income

I will contact HPD on Tuesday, thanks so much for the advice!
Yeah, definitely call HPD. The thing is they are miscalculating your income which is why you pop up into the 125% bracket, right? I bet they are having a harder time filling the 125% units and they think they can just convince you to go along with their BS and take the more expensive unit (heck no!). They count on people being a) uninformed on the process, and b) so desperate for an affordable apartment (understandably) that they won't push back on anything.
You got this, keep us updated!

Hey Harry! I was contacted to submit documents, but no one asked for my paystubs!

Has anyone in the 1XXXs heard back yet? I'm getting nervous.

I haven't heard anything since they first asked me to submit docs. :/

It’s like the process moved really fast at the beginning and now it’s as slow as it can be :/

Seriously

Do you think it's weird to check in?

I don't think so! If anything you're just showing you are still interested.

Hey everyone ,

So you guys know my interview is on Monday .. however I fall under 80% AMI for studio and 1bedroom. Do you think they would give the option to choose between the two I would want to live in during the interview? Or they probably just give me what they want to give me ? I wanted to email them and ask but I didn’t want to seem like a bother. Has anyone ever been in this situation before? If so please give me some insight.

Thanksss so much again !!
