Minneapolis, Minnesota Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Waiting List

The Minneapolis Public Housing Authority (MPHA) Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher waiting list is currently closed. It was last open for one week in June, 2019; and before that in June, 2008. There is no notice of when this waiting list will reopen.

To apply during the opening period, applicants were required to complete the online application.

2,000 applicants were placed on the waiting list by random lottery, by order of preference.

According to the MPHA, "The housing authority will award 95% of waiting list placements to applicants who live, work, or attend school in Minneapolis. The remaining 5% of waiting list placements will be awarded to any other applicant. The residency preference does not have the purpose or effect of delaying or otherwise denying admission based on race, color, ethnic origin, gender, religion, disability, or age of any member of the applicant family."
