Works great on every device.
Start with this template

Housing authorities that rely on paper forms collect inconsistent data and have no reliable way to track each application through the review process. Incomplete household records and missing income documentation slow application decisions and push waitlist timelines further for people who need housing immediately. Typeform's public housing application template gives housing authorities a consistent process to collect complete applicant information before the review begins.

The form captures household composition, current housing situation, monthly income, employment status, and any accessibility or special needs requirements. Questions appear one at a time, so applicants work through each section without facing an overwhelming wall of fields. Conditional logic adapts the form based on household composition. Single applicants move to income and employment fields, while family applications trigger questions about each member's details and income sources.

Customize the eligibility criteria, income thresholds, and household fields to match your authority's requirements and local housing guidelines. Share it on your housing authority's website, distribute via community outreach, or make it available at local service centers. Submissions log automatically in your case management platform via Zapier, so your team reviews complete applications and moves eligible cases forward. Every application arrives organized and ready to review, so your team moves straight to eligibility review.

Public Housing Application Form FAQs:

A public housing application form collects household details, income data, and eligibility information before a housing authority reviews a placement request. It captures household composition, current housing situation, income sources, employment status, and any accessibility requirements in one submission. Use it so every public housing application goes through the same review process, with complete household and income data already on file. 

Housing authorities that accept applications without a standard format make eligibility decisions based on incomplete and inconsistent information. That inconsistency slows the review process and makes it harder to justify placement decisions. A standardized public housing application form means that every case gets reviewed on the same information, so your team prioritizes the waitlist without inconsistencies.

Start with what your team needs from every applicant:

  • Full name, date of birth, and contact details for all household members
  • Current housing situation and reason for applying
  • Monthly income and employment status for all earning members
  • Proof of identity and income (uploaded directly through the form)
  • Accessibility or special needs requirements

Yes. Typeform's File Upload feature lets applicants attach identity documents, proof of income, and lease records directly in the form. Accepted file types include PDFs, JPEGs, and PNGs, with a 10 MB limit per file. Files arrive alongside all other submission details, so your team reviews the complete application in one place without requesting documents separately. File Upload is available on paid Typeform plans.

One form handles every household type when conditional logic routes applicants to the right sections based on their answers. Single applicants move to income and employment questions, while family applications trigger fields for each member's details and income sources. Your team receives complete, relevant information for every application type without building a separate form for each household category.

Library Book Request Form

A book request scrawled on a sticky note at the front desk doesn't make it into any queue, and it definitely doesn't get anyone a call when the book actually arrives. Collect what your library actually needs, the title, patron information, and how they'd like to be notified, before the note gets buried under the next stack of returns.
