About this resource

WAIT LIST CLOSED This program enables qualified applicants to receive rental assistance through the Housing Choice Voucher Program, where rent is determined as 30% of the household's income.

Application Process: Applications must be submitted online, and only one application per waitlist is allowed; submitting multiple applications will result in removal from the waitlist. Households can apply for both the Section 8 and Low Income Public Housing waitlists but cannot submit two applications for Section 8. Prepare the following information: Full names and social security numbers for all family members (contact the housing authority if a family member lacks a number), an active email address, total monthly income for the household, and a current mailing address. For those without computer access (home, library, or social service agency), the Pierce County Housing Authority provides alternative application methods. After application submission, a confirmation number will be generated—make sure to write it down for future reference. Applications are also available in multiple languages. If a disability hinders computer use, reach out to the housing authority for assistance.

Cost: There is no fee to apply online. Be cautious of websites requesting payment to apply, as they are not legitimate.

Who can use this

  • To qualify, applicants must adhere to HUD eligibility criteria and have incomes below the HUD-defined area income limits, with potential applicants placed on a waiting list until a subsidy becomes available.
