DHA's https://dhantx.com/applicants/public-housing/properties/ says qualified public-housing tenants pay approximately 30% of income under federal guidelines. The directory says selection is by property lottery after a full application including criminal-background screening, but does not say that any specific conviction is accepted or automatically denied. https://dhantx.com/applicants/public-housing/apply-for-a-public-housing-residence/ says preliminary applications can be submitted at any time through https://onlinedha.securecafe.com/onlineleasing/dha-live/guestlogin.aspx, remain pending until selected or up to 18 months, and only then may lead to a full application and eligibility review. Current unit availability, site-specific rent, criminal-history result and final offer must be confirmed with DHA; a pre-application is not an approval.
