The Boise City and Ada County Housing Authorities are reopening their section eight housing voucher program lottery waitlist on January 10th. It’s been 2 1/2 years since the lottery has been open for the federal government's largest program to assist low-income families and individuals.

This Is How It Works

The housing vouchers have qualified tenants pay a portion of their rent based on a percentage of their income, then the rest is paid to their landlord from the housing authorities.

Keep in mind that the lottery is a random draw and there is no advantage to submitting pre-applications early.

According to an article on KTVB, applications can only be submitted online and close February 10th.
