2008 Update of Centralized Waiting List
The Massachusetts Centralized Waiting List is updated and purged every two years. The 2008 Update Letter was mailed on February 29, 2008.
"WHO RECEIVED THE UPDATE LETTER?"
IF YOU APPLIED TO THE CENTRALIZED WAITING LIST BEFORE OCTOBER 1, 2007 you should have received a letter asking if you wish to remain on the Centralized Waiting List and if your information is still accurate. The deadline to respond was April 4, 2008. If you did not respond to this letter your name has been removed from the waiting list.
"I SENT MY RESPONSE. HOW CAN I BE SURE IT WAS RECEIVED?"
TO CHECK THE STATUS OF YOUR APPLICATION and whether your response to the update was received, please download and print the Request for Status form and return it to a participating housing authority listed on the reverse. Housing Authorities can not tell you where you are on this waiting list. They can tell you only whether your application is currently active and verify your information.
"MY APPLICATION WAS REMOVED FOR NOT RESPONDING. HOW CAN I APPEAL?"
If you never received the update letter or missed the deadline and believe you should not have been removed, download and complete the Request for Reinstatement form and return it to the address on the form.
Other questions?? Call toll-free 1-877-868-0040.
