Click Here For All Waiting Lists to Check Waiting List Status 

Waiting Lists for Dunlap RAD, Hansen RAD and Section 8 are currently closed. Please see below for information about the open Bethany Manor waiting list.

If you already have an application, use the status checker above to check your waiting list status. Please note, if no application information is found that means you did not meet the waiting list criteria that required you to be a Perth Amboy resident to apply, or a U.S. Veteran, or you were not chosen in the lottery. 

Letters and an update form were emailed or mailed to those selected in the Dunlap RAD and Section 8 lottery. It is necessary for you to provide the documentation requested to remain on the waiting list.

Please check back periodically for information on waiting list openings. Due to the high volume of calls and emails we cannot answer general inquiries as to how to apply for our section 8 program. Please scroll to the bottom of this page for helpful links to additional affordable housing resources.
