The location of this location must be within Miami County. The beneficiary cannot have debts with the owner of the premises and must have a legal tenancy agreement.

Aspirants can get printed applications from Municipal and Commissioner Offices. Information that citizens must provide includes tax returns and an updated copy of the rental agreement.

You must submit a copy of your Florida State ID and a current copy of your monthly payment. Expired documents will not be accepted and multiple claims for the same house will not be allowed.

The program has a limited budget, so only a fraction of the eligible population will have access to it. Ineligible applicants will not receive notification.

Approved requests will be disaggregated district-wise with a view to form a numerical list of those selected. Homeowners are then notified to submit a W-9 form regarding their taxpayer status.
