Waiting lists can close without notice once a specific number of applications is reached.
All waiting lists in Naguabo are currently closed. Eligibility is determined by annual gross income, whether an applicant qualifies as elderly, a person with disabilities, or a family, and U.S. citizenship or eligible immigration status. Applications are included in the waiting list by receipt order, organized by unit type, number of bedrooms, and preferences, and families can select up to three public housing projects.
Project-Based Vouchers are tied to specific housing units rather than following the tenant. Landlords or developers partner with the housing authority to reserve units for eligible low-income families. Unlike tenant-based HCV vouchers, PBV assistance stays with the unit if the tenant moves.
