Welcome to the Housing Authority of Cook County's Resident and Applicant Portal 

ATTENTION: THE HOUSING AUTHORITY OF COOK COUNTY'S HOUSING CHOICE VOUCHER (HCV) WAITING LIST IS CURRENTLY CLOSED. 

From this site you can submit a new application for housing, update your current application contact information, apply for other properties with open wait lists, and access your resident profile.  For first time users select "Click here to register".  Once the page loads, select "I want to apply/register." 


If you have previously registered for Rent Café to apply for our Affordable Multi-Family Housing sites, you will need to complete a new Rent Café registration in order to access our Project Based Voucher and Housing Choice Voucher wait list application. You will only be able to apply if the waiting list is open.

Due to concerns surrounding COVID-19, HACC is cancelling all public meetings and events at our sites and downtown office until further notice. This includes briefings and special program workshops. If you are scheduled to come into the office for a briefing or appointment, please do not come in as we are not seeing visitors. HACC staff members will continue to work remotely via email and telephone - please contact your housing specialist or program coordinator for more information. We appreciate your patience as we adjust to the new work environment - delays in processing are expected.
