My name is Melissa Kelly i'm a victim of domestic violence I vacated my apartment that I shared with my abuser once I learned he was being released from prison. I applied for an emergency transfer and submitted my order of protection and police reports I am hiding from my abuser with my four year old daughter they told me it would take 4 to 8 Weeks to process and its been almost a year.I've been given the run around ever since and i'm trying to keep me and my baby safe.

Hello Kim, I am a section 8 voucher holder and I have a sick family member that needs my care management for their health condition. But I must travel and stay several months. I need to know if I can break my lease in tampa Florida to port back to Illinois to care for my loved one. I understand that most county require u to finish lease out but what about a emergency sickness that was unexpected, can I vacate lease agreement w/o losing my section8 voucher, thanks for reading today is August 2017?

Hello Melissa, I am in the position of applying for a transfer as well. I did several transfer request since February and all were denied... and I also put in for an emergency transfer. I was given the run around as well. I did my own research on the internet, this is the direct contact to section 8 and transfer departments. Try to contact the transfer department yourself; by writing a letter to the leased housing department. I've provided the link to the contacts.
I hope this help u. Be safe, u and your child/children.
GOD BLESS ;-)
