Waiting Lists Open for Families, Elderly, Disabled, or Involuntary Displaced

The Carroll County Housing Authority (CCHA) is only accepting applications from persons that are families, elderly, disabled, or displaced by a natural or government action for its Low Income Public Housing waiting lists.

Application Information Must Be Current and Up to Date

It is important to the application process that all your information is correct and up to date at all times. If anything changes, (i.e. mailing address, email address, household members) you must contact the Carroll County Housing Authority in writing to have your application updated and reflect such changes. Send all notifications of changes to pattyaccha@grics.net.

Effective April 1, 2025, following the Lease renewals, Carroll County Housing Authority will return to applying a $25.00/Late Fee to all monthly rent payments received after the fifth of the month, or next business day if the 5th falls on a weekend, per your Lease agreement.

Annual Lease Re-Examinations

With the new year upon us, the Annual Lease Re-examinations will be fast approaching in February.  In the meantime, if you receive a letter from the Social Security Administration indicating your income for 2025, please bring it to the CCHA office and we will make a copy for your file.  Also, you should receive a letter the first week in January from our office regarding the required information needed to complete your re-examination.  If you do not receive the letter by January 15, 2025, please call our CCHA office immediately.  In addition, please either call or stop by the CCHA office to schedule your re-examination appointment.  Please be sure that all applicable forms are completed prior to your appointment.  It is especially important that the “Banking  Verification” form be taken to your banking institution a few weeks prior to your    appointment to be completed, as a few local banks have to forward the paperwork to their office headquarters, which are in a different state, to be completed. As an important reminder, all re-examinations must be completed and forwarded to the Chicago HUD office by February 28, 2025.  Thus, if your re-examination is not completed by this date your Lease will not be renewed.
