Orange County has opened a waiting list for the Housing Choice Voucher Program. Applications will be accepted from September 18 through September 29.

The Orange County Housing Authority will increase the number of applications for the Housing Choice Voucher Program. This federal government program will help primarily low-income families, seniors and people with disabilities find safe and habitable housing. There are thousands of individuals and families waiting for it.

"For the first time in more than a decade, the Orange County Housing Authority's waiting list is open again," said Chairman Donald P. Wagner, Third District Supervisor of the Orange County Board of Supervisors. Thousands of people who have been waiting to apply for rental housing felt a welcome relief.

"Orange County is fulfilling its request to address homelessness and support affordable housing," added First District Vice Chair Andrew Do. - In 2017, the waiting list for housing vouchers was over 40,000 people. But thanks to the work of the County Housing Authority, that list has been significantly reduced this year. Rebuilding the waiting list will help thousands of people get safe and stable housing in Orange County."

This time the waiting list will be limited to 12,000 applicants. Applications will not be considered on a first-come, first-served basis.

The Housing Choice Voucher Program will benefit Orange County departmental employees, U.S. veterans, seniors, people with disabilities, working families and the unemployed. Except for residents of the cities of Anaheim, Garden Grove and Santa Ana. Separate Housing Choice Voucher programs are available there.

The application deadline is 8:00 a.m. on September 18 through 11:59 p.m. on September 29:

- online at Waitlistcheck
- by mail to PO Box 11387, Santa Ana, CA 92711.
