Finding & leasing a unit

Submit a Request to Move form to EBRPHA before giving notice to your landlord. After EBRPHA approves the move, you'll receive a new voucher with a search deadline. Do not give notice until your move is approved.
Portability allows you to use your voucher in another housing authority's jurisdiction. Notify your EBRPHA specialist before making any plans to move out of EBR Parish — we'll coordinate the transfer with the receiving authority.
Missing your recertification deadline can result in termination of your housing assistance. If you're having trouble completing the process, contact your specialist as early as possible — we can often work with you to avoid a lapse.
Yes, but you must request approval from EBRPHA before adding anyone to your household. Unauthorized occupants can put your voucher at risk. Submit a household change request through the portal or contact your specialist directly.
