Inclusion on the Waitlist represents only the first step for initial compliance and does not guarantee preliminary approval or eligibility for a unit. Step Two – Preliminary Eligibility Review As applicant’s names are reached on the Waitlist, CDLI will contact applicants in ranked order, by email, if available, or by phone. If an applicant remains interested, the applicant will be asked to submit required documentation that will include (1) last 2 years of federal income tax returns, W-2 and/or 1099 form; (2) four most recent consecutive pay stubs; (3) three most recent consecutive monthly bank statements for all bank accounts and investment accounts.

Applicants who are successfully screened will be offered the opportunity to enter into a written Lease Agreement. Criminal Background Search A criminal background check will be conducted. There are two mandatory reasons why an applicant WILL be denied tenancy based on their criminal background: applicant or any member of the household has been convicted for methamphetamine production; or applicant or any member of the household is a lifetime registrant on a State or Federal Sex Offender database. In addition, Owner/Manager will assess applicants with criminal convictions and pending arrests for offenses that: involved physical danger or violence to persons or property or that adversely affected the health, safety and welfare of other people. These categories of crimes are relevant because they relate to the behavior expected of a tenant, who is to live peaceably alongside other tenants and to respect their property. An individualized assessment will be conducted and a determination made which may result in an applicant being denied. Credit History A credit report will be obtained on each applicant. Applicant must have a satisfactory credit history of meeting financial obligations, including timely payment of rent. Applicants cannot have been late on rental payments in the last 12 months. Outstanding judgements, collections, a history of late payments, and criminal history may be a cause for ineligibility. A minimum credit score of 650 is required. Credit history, outstanding judgements, collections, a history of late payments, and criminal history are reviewed on a case-by-case basis. Appeals Owner/Manager will provide written notice to an applicant who is rejected on the basis of any of the above screening criteria. The applicant will have five business days to submit a written appeal to the Owner/Manager. The appeal will be reviewed by a member of the Owner/Manager staff not involved in the initial review and rejection and such party will provide a final written determination within ten days of receipt of the applicant’s written appeal.
