Housing Choice Voucher Program

The Housing Authority of the City of Arlington (AHA) will accept applications from persons interested in participating in its Housing Choice Voucher (HCV) program only during the Open Enrollment period, which begins at 9 a.m. Friday, April 26, 2024, and ends at 3 p.m. Thursday, May 2, 2024.  Applications will be retained until the next open enrollment.  All HCV applications from the previous open enrollment have been removed and must re-apply during this Open Enrollment period to be considered for assistance.

Applications will only be accepted online.  Applicants that need access to a computer may visit a branch of the Arlington Public Library. Please click here for a list of library locations. Applicants must have an active email account to apply. A free email account can be obtained through a provider of your choice. Persons needing assistance with completing an application may contact the AHA during the Open Enrollment period by coming in the office or calling 817-276-6722. For those with Limited English Proficiency (LEP), a phone line to an interpreter can also be provided at the office.

Applicants should visit the AHA website for additional details and to complete an application at:

To ensure the application process is fair and available to all, applications received will be randomly assigned a position on the waiting list. Selecting an application from the waiting list is not based on date and time of application.

The HCV program is a rental housing assistance program funded by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). The program assists very low-income persons, families, the elderly, and persons with disabilities to reside in safe, decent, rental housing they can afford.
