Some building waiting periods are only a few months, others can take years. The wait for an apartment depends on the building you select. Let us call you when your name reaches the top of the list. No, calling us will not affect how fast you advance on a wait list.

Should I keep calling to see where I am on the wait list? If your name comes to the top of the list and we can’t reach you, your name is taken off the wait list. We also send you a form to use to notify us of any change in your address or other contact information. If you selected a building you do not qualify for, we will contact you and explain what housing programs you do qualify for. The date you submit your application determines your place on the wait list.įinally, we send you a letter confirming you are on the wait list(s) if you are eligible, or we explain why you are not eligible.
