Applying At CRHC

Before you Visit...

1. Visit the Application Generator page to download all of the necessary application forms.
2. Please note that the first 2 pages of the Housing Application Form specify all of the additional documents that may be necessary to be included with your application.
3. Only FULLY COMPLETED Application forms will be processed.
4. Gather the completed forms from Step 1 and the documents from Step 2 then visit the CRHC offices at 10232 - 112 Street NW, Edmonton, Alberta. The offices are open from 8:30am - 4:00pm, Monday to Friday. The offices are closed on statutory holidays.
   

At the CRHC Offices...

1. When you walk in, there will be a reception desk to your left. Ask the receptionist for a number, then take a seat in the waiting area.
2. The receptionist will call out numbers and desks as they are able to serve new people. Once your number is called, visit the desk number that was called.
3. Inform the Applications Clerk for which program you are applying (Community Housing, Direct Rent Supplement, Affordable Housing, etc.), then present the Clerk with all of the papers you brought with you, and they will help you complete the application process.

After you have Applied...

1. CRHC will contact you about a week after you have applied, advising you if you are eligible. If you are eligible you will be put on a waiting list for that program.
2. Be sure that you keep CRHC informed of any changes in your current contact information and financial situation. You can fill out the appropriate form and mail, fax, or hand deliver it to CRHC offices.
3. CRHC will contact you when they have a housing unit or subsidy available for you. Housing units and subsidies are given to applicants based on need. They are not granted on a first come, first serve basis. CRHC keeps all eligible applications until they have been granted a housing unit or subsidy, as long as your information is kept accurate and up-to-date.
