About Andrew Jackson Houses

Who can apply

Public housing is for low-income households that meet HUD income limits for the area — the limit is 80% of area median income, and most new residents earn far less. The housing authority also checks household size, rental history and other eligibility rules.

How to apply

  1. Contact the New York City Housing Authority (NYCHA) at 212-306-3000, or use its online application, and ask how to apply for public housing.
  2. The public housing waiting list is separate from the Section 8 voucher list — you can be on both.
  3. Have ID for every household member, proof of income, and Social Security numbers where available.
  4. Keep your contact information current with the housing authority so you do not miss a letter about an interview or unit offer.

Your rights

New York City and New York State law ban source-of-income discrimination, so a landlord can't turn you down because you use a voucher or other housing assistance (NYC Human Rights Law § 8-107(5)). Learn your rights.
