How do families receive Section 8 Rental Assistance?

Due to the limited amount of Federal funding, the availability of Section 8 assistance nationwide is severely limited. Families who apply to receive Section 8 rental assistance must typically wait from 6 months to 10+ years to receive this benefit. The Section 8 Program is not an entitlement program. This means that not every family whose income makes them eligible for Section 8 automatically receives assistance. Consequently, the family must apply and wait to receive Section 8 assistance.
