Instructions
To apply for the Saginaw Housing Commission's Public Housing Waiting List you will need to create an account.
The Saginaw Housing Commission is the Public Housing Authority (PHA) for Saginaw County, Michigan and rents units in the City of Saginaw.
Effective April 1, 2024, the following waiting lists are closed:
One bedroom Non-Elderly/Non-Disabled
Two Bedroom Family
Three Bedroom Family
Four Bedroom Family
*If you apply for one of the closed waiting lists, your application will be ineligible.
Placement on the Waiting List
The PHA will review each complete application receive and make a preliminary assessment of the family’s eligibility.
- Age of Majority (18 years of age and older)
- Public Housing Income Limits
No applicant has a right or entitlement to be listed on the waiting list, or to any particular position on the waiting list.
Ineligible for Placement on the Waiting List
If the PHA can determine from the information provided that a family is ineligible, the family will not be placed on the waiting list. Where a family is determined to be ineligible, the PHA will send written notification of the ineligibility determination and specify the reasons for ineligility.
Eligible for Placement on the Waiting List
The PHA will send written notification of the preliminary eligibility determination. Placement on the waiting list does not indicate that the family is, in fact, eligible for assistance. A final determination of eligibility will be made when the family is selected from the waiting list.
Applicants will be placed on the waiting list according to date and time of their completed application received by the PHA. The PHA will assign families on the waiting list according to the bedroom size for which a family qualifies as established in its occupancy standards.
Removal from the Waiting List
If any correspondence is returned by the post office, the applicant will be removed from the waiting list without further notice.
Please note: Duplicate applicants will not be accepted. Please ensure all household members for which you are applying will only be considered in the first submitted application.
If you are a person with a disability and you need a disability-related accommodation to access any programs, services, or activities provided by the Saginaw Housing Commission, you may contact the Saginaw Housing Commission at (989) 755-8183.
