I don’t understand your words. What is an “enrollment from Section 8”?My experience: I have housing subsidized by the Housing Choice Voucher Program (Section 8). From the time of my first application to being awarded a voucher took 2 years. I’ve been told that’s fast for my area. (I am a low-income, disabled senior that was made homeless when my landlord sold the house.)First you apply to be on a waiting list. Enrollment is not always open in every location. Some locations only accept waiting list applications for a few days, every couple of years. Chicago’s waiting list has been closed since 2014. I applied online to more than two dozen different housing authorities. I made it to the waiting list for only three locations. Then it was almost another year before I was picked for a voucher. After that the local Housing Authority (HA) gave me 30 days to find a landlord that would accept the voucher.Your results may vary. The local HA ranks your eligibility by urgency of need. It is not first come, first served. Homeless, housing insecure, seniors, veterans, disabled, living with minor children, living locally, crime victims, etc. All get a preferred rating for making the lists. Noted: Single persons are low on the priority, but have more housing choices. Larger households get a higher preference for making the list, but there a fewer locations that accept large households. The same circumstances exist for the disabled; they make the list sooner, but have fewer housing options.If you interested in a housing voucher (Section 8) and think you might be eligible, I recommend visiting the non-profit website: Millions of Low Income Apartments & Section 8 Waiting Lists on Affordable Housing Online. Noted: Over and over again the website will tell you not to give money to anything or anyone that wants to sell you Section 8 applications or information. It is all free!

Yes. In theory, it is possible."Portability" in the Housing Choice Voucher program refers to the process through which the family can transfer or "port" their rental subsidy when they move to a location outside the jurisdiction of the public housing agency (PHA) that first gave them the voucher when they were selected for the program.New families may not be able to port immediately; they may have to live in the jurisdiction of the initial PHA for a year before they can port.HUD.gov / U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)1). Contact your issuing (current) housing authority. They will assist you in the transfer.2). Contact Housing Authority of the County of Los Angeles (they do Hollywood) to complete the transfer.3). You will need to find a landlord that is willing to accept the Housing Choice voucher.There are 10 low income housing apartment complexes which contain 628 affordable apartments for rent in Hollywood, CaliforniaExample:Park Plaza Senior Apartments6755 Rhodes AveHollywood, CA1-2 BR55+Accepts Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers (HCV)…and you thought this was a stupid question.PS == The Hollywood CA Low Income Housing list includes public housing. It notes that the waiting list for some PH apartment complexes is 3 to 5 years. You can avoid waiting lists by finding a private landlord willing to accept your voucher.
