Eligibility for the Non-Elderly Disabled (NED) Voucher program is almost identical to the Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher program. The main difference is that Non-Elderly Disabled Vouchers are for non-elderly disabled persons.

To qualify for a Non-Elderly Disabled Voucher, the household must meet the following conditions:<\/p>

  1. Meet the basic requirements for a Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher.<\/strong>

    There are some basic requirements for admission that are set by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD).Read How To Qualify For A Section 8 Voucher<\/a> for more information.<\/p> <\/li>

  2. Have a documented disability while between the ages of 18-61, or be the spouse of a person with these conditions.<\/strong>

    Persons who are 62 years old and above are considered elderly, and are not eligible for Non-Elderly Disabled Vouchers.<\/p> <\/li>

  3. Apply as the head of household, co-head, or spouse.<\/strong>

    If a household member other than the head of household, co-head or spouse meets the disability and age requirements, they will not qualify for a Non-Elderly Disabled Voucher.This is different from the Mainstream Voucher Program, which allows any household member to qualify for these conditions. For more information, read the Mainstream Voucher Guide.<\/a><\/p> <\/li><\/ol><\/div>\n\n\n\n

    What’s Next?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Now that the basic requirements have been checked, an application must be submitted to a housing authority with an open waiting list.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
