Section 8 Waitlists Open in New Jersey (2026)

New Jersey has 92 public housing authorities in our tracker. Waitlist openings come and go quickly - some lists stay closed for years, others open for days - so every agency below shows its current status and the date we last checked it.

Right now every status on this page reads unknown: that is our honest starting point, not a guess. We re-check PHA sites every week, starting with the ten largest states, and update each agency the moment we verify a change. Until we have verified an agency, treat its list as closed-or-unknown and confirm directly on the PHA’s own page before making plans. Joining any waitlist is always free.
