About IL901 & the Section 8 Program

Illinois Housing Development Authority is the HUD-assigned Public Housing Authority code IL901 for Chicago, Illinois. PHAs administer the federal Housing Choice Voucher program under 24 CFR Part 982, paying the difference between a tenant's contribution (typically 30% of adjusted income) and the unit's contract rent — capped by the PHA's published payment standard.
