The fine print worth knowing before you go
- 1
This is only a pre-application for the waitlist
Submitting a pre-application does not guarantee housing — it gets you in line for the waitlist, which can still take time to reach.
- 2
The window is short — don't wait
The flyer gives less than two weeks total. If you're eligible, apply right away rather than waiting to gather every document first.

We confirmed the program, not the exact date window
Orange County's own site confirms this program and application page are real, but we couldn't independently pull the live opening/closing dates to cross-check the flyer — check the county site directly for the current status.
A real, official county housing voucher waitlist — if you might qualify, don't sit on this one given how short the window is.
