I reported that we had no income on the 19th of September my case worker just called me and said because I didn't report on the 15th of September my rent will not go down for October regardless of no income. Seema to me Dallas county doesn't know how it works becausw this isn't right. Anyone else have a problem like this? And should I get an attorney I think they need to be audited.

If you have a family do not move to Dallas county housing they’re so unorganized No one knows what’s going on Seems like the workers don’t want be there Ms.Felicia is terrible she used to moms losing their housing It’s so many ppl lost they voucher with Dallas county I went to pick my paperwork she did my briefing in 5 mins she was too busy trying to order lunch She told me I had 2 weeks to find a place she literally laughed in my face because she knew it was impossible I had to reach out to her supervisor She was more confused I hope they fix this problem before more moms and kids lose they place this is ridiculous I had to reach out to the director for information They don’t want work I was so disgusted leaving there I threw the paperwork away I still complain and emailed them because that can hurt the next mom and her kids Don’t deal with Dallas county

I came in to check on my application for assistance. The staff was real helpful and polite. I explained my situation to Dallari at the front desk, she was very patient and caring. She explained to me how the program works, and gave me other resources to try. I thank you so much. I pray that you keep that caring spirit and don’t let anything change it.

Thanks! Your review is awaiting moderation.

Questions & Answers

Can I live with someone on section 8 if I got a criminal record

Rollin Fountain | Oct 20, 2017
Reup Ro | Oct 20, 2019

Yes you can after 5 years but you can go to the T.D. Jakes T.O.R.I. program located 1810 High Hill Blvd, Dallas, TX 75203 the program is 1 year long and there is a $5 fee upfront and you have to attend a few classes once a week to be rehabilitated and after that year you will be placed in one of Jakes 3 apartment complexes for a year then after the year is up you will then receive a housing choice voucher believe me its worth it so I hope this will help you and please pass it on so that it may help another and good luck

The best way to find out the answer to that question would be to call. Are you porting out because of emergency evacuation?

I am on probation for a felony and my number was finally selected for public housing. Do I stand ant chance of getting it? I have submitted my full application but it's killing me not knowing if I even have any reason to hope.

Can I receive section 8 with a felony that isnt 5 yrs old?

Shawna Ritter | Oct 20, 2019
Danesheila Jackson | Oct 20, 2019

No you cannot, section 8 is not offered to felons. I suggest that once your charge is old enough to seal, do that as soon as possible! My sister had the same problem.

I have a question, I’m going to be on project based apartment. I recently lost my job, but I still clean people house on the weekend. They pay cash, do they accept that as some type of income?

If your lease is up in November 2019 what month will section 8 do the annual recertification?

Lolita Green | Oct 20, 2019
Reup Ro | Oct 20, 2019

They are not doing the annual recertification due to them not having any funding for anyone to move its been like that since last year just a few months back they sent out a letter stating about everyone had to go to that website and register so that was the recertification btw you can move but you have to stay in your same zip code and the rent has to be the same amount as it now hope this helps and please pass this message on

Report any fraudulent activity to your Section 8 Caseworker supervisor. Then contact the fair housing authority for Dallas County and report them. You can also get free legal aid to sue them, MLK center downtown offers free legal aid on certain days of the month, be sure to bring all documentation and be prepared to spend the entire day.
