We do not take the application. The housing authority does. Applying to its waitlist is free.
We have not confirmed how to apply, because we have not yet read a page that states a waiting-list status. Start from the contact information on this page, and use the authority’s own website when you have it.
This is a common checklist, not MANKATO EDA’s list. Bring what the authority’s application page names. Read the longer notes on papers.
Applying is free. Do not pay a person, a website, or a text message that offers to add you to a waitlist or move you up one. A landlord can charge an ordinary fee to apply for an apartment. That fee is not a fee to join the housing authority’s list.
How to spot a voucher scam. Report one to the HUD Office of Inspector General hotline.
Address, phone, and email are the HUD directory record. They are free to read. We do not sell them or hide them.
HUD lists the program type as Combined, which means both public housing and Housing Choice Vouchers. These counts are units the authority reported to HUD. They are not the number of people on a waitlist.

Plain-language notes on the programs this authority runs. They describe the federal programs. They are not this authority’s rules, and they are not legal advice.
A Housing Choice Voucher helps a household pay rent to a private landlord. The household finds the home. The housing authority pays a portion of the rent to the owner. People often call this Section 8.
The voucher is tied to the household, so the household can move to another unit that meets the program rules. The authority’s own page says where the household is allowed to live.
Public housing is an apartment the housing authority owns. The household pays rent based on income, and the authority is the landlord.
A public-housing waiting list is for those apartments. It is a different list from a voucher that can be used with a private landlord.
