Public Housing and Rent Supplement Programs

Your household must be in at least one of the following situations:

• You live in a crowded or inadequate dwelling, and you currently pay less than 30% of your income for shelter, but basic shelter costs for an adequate and suitable dwelling available in your market would cost 30% or more of your income
• You pay 30% or more of your income for shelter and an adequate and suitable dwelling available in your market area would cost 30% or more of your income.
• You have a need for special purpose accommodation
• If your household does not have a special purpose housing need, your total household income must be at or below the Housing Income Limit which depends on your household size and where you live in New Brunswick
