Do you qualify?

Most income-based programs cap eligibility at the Very Low Income (50%) level, and the deepest assistance — public housing and most Section 8 vouchers — targets households at or below Extremely Low Income (30%). LIHTC and other affordable units commonly use the Low Income (80%) threshold. For example, a household of four in Guam generally qualifies for income-based housing if it earns under $46,300, and for the deepest assistance under $27,800.
