Just like the title says: How Many Projects Have You Been Contacted and Waitlisted For Since Starting Housing Connect?

I was just wondering how common this is because I tend to see people say on here to not get your hopes up until that lease is signed so I assume it's happened to them.

One other reason people mention that is because sometimes the way the building calculates income is not the same as what we may believe our income to be, and therefore while you believed you qualified - you were ultimately rejected.

Personally I’ve only submitted documents for one lottery, so I haven’t been waitlisted.

Oh wow I'm sorry about that. Did you have any preferences (like Community Board, City Worker, etc) for them?

If you don't hear anything before the end of this year, I hope this coming year brings you many callbacks!
