I was called-in to setup an interview for a middle income apartment(120% AMI for Community Board 4 for phase 2) on January 26th.

I was within bracket when I applied last year, but got a bonus at the end of the year that take me out of the bracket by about $4000, however, my base salary is still within bracket and the bonus is not predetermined nor guaranteed yearly.

If looking at my regular paychecks, even considering my new salary after an end of the year increase that just reflected on my last paycheck yesterday, I would still be below the maximum bracket income by about $500. Will the bonus be considered in the income calculation, knowing this is not a regular income?

My log is 1248 and I have community preference, and believe the competition might be lesser on the 120% AMI given the 1 Bedroom rent would still be around 2100, although this is for one of those brand new luxury building. Does the community preference means that they prioritize contacting people in the neighborhood, and would being called for an interview mean there should be a unit available if I qualify, or are they calling more potential tenants than units available? The building only opened a few months ago and is still not full, so I would assume those would only be new units and still not occupied.

Thank you in advance
Hi,
I have a question,
They called you or sent you letter?

It could be either a letter, an email or a phone call. It depends what contact info was on your application. They will try to contact either by mail, email or phone for sure.

I got an email. It went in my spam folder. Luckily, I checked it that morning and found it there quickly.

I received an email 2 weeks ago for an interview set for mid Feb.
I've already been through this process once for Henry Hall and was ultimately rejected.
Ugh so nervous...I know the odds are slim so trying not to get my hope up.
But please let this be my year

Good luck you should be able to qualify for both depending which bracket you fall into.
I'm going for studio or 1 bd.

how far along the process are you?
You have a low log number with CB preference. You should of been called in a month ago. Unless you are in the 120% AMI they they start that after the 40% AMI
