Important: If you are seeking to apply for emergency rent/utility assistance through the Housing Preservation Program, please go here to begin the process.
To apply for the Housing Choice Voucher program, go to our application portal by clicking the “apply” button below.
Persons seeking rental assistance can apply online or apply at the IHFA Branch Office that serves their region. The average waiting list time is approximately 12 to 24 months.
If you prefer a paper application, the rental assistance application and supplemental form must be printed, completed and signed in ink, then mailed or hand-delivered to the appropriate branch office location to be considered.
To download a paper application, choose a branch office location below. Only one application will be accepted; duplicate applications submitted for other branch offices will not be accepted
Please note:
- Persons inquiring about the status of their application must contact the branch office where they applied.
- IHFA does not administer the program in Boise or the Treasure Valley area and does not accept applications at the Boise Administrative Office for this reason.
- Effective September 30, 2019, the Idaho Falls branch office has moved to 1235 Jones St. Idaho Falls. All phone numbers and email addresses remain the same.
