The Noblesville Housing Authority is currently accepting pre-applications online for its Housing Choice Voucher Waiting List until 4 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 11. Pre-applications must be submitted online at waitlistcheck.com/IN2939. There is no fee to apply.
Applicants will be able to apply online at waitlistcheck.com/IN2939 from any computer, tablet, or smartphone with online access any time of day until 4 p.m. on Friday, Dec. 11. Status information regarding placement on the list will be available online within 10 calendar days after the closing date. Instructions regarding obtaining status information are provided during the online application process. Preapplications must be made online. No paper applications will be accepted.
Applicants must apply during the period the list is open for applications.
Due to limited funding availability, pre-applications will be selected and ordered using local preferences and a random lottery system. (Not all applicants will be placed on the Waiting List.) By randomly selecting the applications received for placement on the waiting lists, the process is equitable and fair.
The time and date of receipt of the application online has no bearing on whether an application will be selected for the waiting list.
Online applications will automatically be sorted by Noblesville Housing Authority preferences.
Applicants who live or work in Hamilton County, are elderly and/or disabled, are veterans or surviving spouses of veterans, or who live or work in the counties contiguous with Hamilton County (Boone, Clinton, Hancock, Madison, Marion and Tipton) will receive a preference on the list and are therefore encouraged to apply. After the pre-applications are sorted by preference, the online system will randomly select 200 of the pre-applications using local preferences and a lottery system.
The Housing Choice Voucher program is the federal government’s primary program that allows very low-income families to choose and lease or purchase safe, decent and affordable privately-owned rental housing. The Housing Choice Voucher program covers the rent portion that exceeds approximately 30 percent of an eligible family’s monthly income. Any and all income-eligible families may submit a preapplication. Acceptance and/or assistance are based on income verification, eligibility requirements, preference factors, and a lottery selection process. Maximum income levels, based on family size are as follows:
Family Size Income Limit
1 $28,700
2 $32,800
3 $36,900
4 $41,000
5 $44,300
6 $47,600
7 $50,850
8 $54,150
Reasons for denial of pre-applications
Pre-applications will be removed from the wait list if any of the following are determined after the initial interview:

- Lifetime registered sex offender
- Persons convicted of manufacturing or producing methamphetamine
