Because there are so many families who need affordable rental housing, the fairest way for housing authorities to select families is through a waiting list. Currently, registration is closed.
Applicants for Miami-Dade County’s subsidized rental housing programs are placed on a ranked waiting list compiled using a computerized random selection system. There is a single online application available only during an open registration period determined by the agency for project-based units (Public Housing, Moderate Rehabilitation and Section 8 New Construction) and tenant-based units (Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher).
- Waiting List
Applicants for Miami-Dade Public Housing and Community Development’s subsidized rental housing programs are placed – using a computerized random selection system – on a ranked/position list number waiting list.
Waiting list ranking/position list number
A computerized random selection system, in which a computer randomly assigns waiting list rankings/position list numbers, takes place after the application period. Please note that it may take a few months after the application period is over for the ranking/position list numbers to be announced.
Once you move to the top of the waiting list, you will be mailed an appointment letter to begin the eligibility verification process.
To see your ranking/position list number, click on the link below of the corresponding waiting list (i.e., 2014 Moderate Rehabilitation, 2008 Waiting List) and search/find your web application confirmation number in the provided (PDF) file. The waiting list includes the applicant’s confirmation number, Entity-ID or Client-ID and the ranking/position list number.
- 2014 Moderate Rehabilitation Waiting List
- 2014 Public Housing Waiting List
- 2008 Waiting List
Updating your waiting list registration
- Please be sure your current address is on file. If your address has changed, complete and mail the Change of Address form or drop it off at the Applicant Leasing Center.
- If your family size changes you will need to complete a Request to add-remove household members form to PHCD’s Applicant Leasing Center.
The addition or removal of family members may change your bedroom size, but your ranking will always remain the same.
Changes in your income may affect your eligibility or rental payments, but not your ranking. Changes in income will be processed at the time of the eligibility interview.
Open registration for the current Waiting List is now closed. Registration information will be updated here https://rksloans.com/payday-loans-de/ and published, at a minimum, in each of the following newspapers:
- The Miami Herald, the largest paper of daily general circulation.
- The Miami Times, the paper with the largest circulation among African-Americans.
- Diario Las Americas, a Spanish publication.
During open registration, applicants are screened at an interview and are required to provide documentation that will be used to determine eligibility.
Public Housing is limited to low-income families and individuals. Some of the factors used in determining an applicant’s eligibility include:
Eligibility Interview
If your ranking number is selected from the waiting list you will be required to meet the eligibility requirements. Bring the documentation listed below to the housing eligibility interview at the Applicant and Leasing Center. Your interview will determine whether you are eligible for housing assistance.

If you have been denied housing and would like to exercise your right to an informal review, you must submit the Informal Review Request form
Income limits by family size and admission income targeting requirements for the Public Housing, Section 8, and Moderate Rehabilitation programs.
