Check your income
What you type stays on your device. It is never sent or saved.
How this works
- Household size sets your limit. Every person who will live with you counts — adults, kids and babies. More people means a higher limit.
- We turn your income into a yearly total. Monthly income is multiplied by 12. Use income before taxes for everyone in the home.
- We compare it with the 2026 limits for 1 person:
- 30% of area income: $24,000 or less — extremely low income, often gets priority
- 50% of area income: $39,950 or less — the usual limit for a voucher
- 80% of area income: $63,950 or less — may qualify for other affordable housing
Estimate only, not an approval. Sarasota's waiting list is closed right now. The housing authority makes the final decision.
