New HUD Eviction Notice Rule
Wilson Housing Authority is now required to provide a 30-day notice prior to any adverse action for eviction for non-payment of rent instead of the previous 14 days. If you receive a 30-day termination letter for non-payment of rent, a list of community resources will also be provided per the notice requirement. This ruling has become effective December 8, 2021.

PUBLIC HOUSING
Public (low-income) housing was established to provide decent and safe rental housing for eligible low-income families, the elderly, and persons with disabilities.
Public (low-income) housing is limited to low-income families and individuals. WHA determines eligibility based on:
- Annual gross income
- Local preferences (subject to change based on the agency’s Annual Plan)
- U.S. citizenship or eligible immigration status.
In addition to subsidizing living units for various family sizes, WHA offers public (low-income) housing units that are specifically designated for seniors and adults with disabilities.
