Housing Registry Supplemental Application Form

The Housing Registry Supplemental Application Form is used by some housing providers that give additional consideration to applicants who are: homeless; fleeing domestic violence or abuse; or have a serious health condition affected by their current housing; and provides specific information from a third party, such as a health professional, social worker or counsellor, who can verify the applicant’s current housing situation and the specific housing needs they have.

Please note: Not all medical conditions require a supplemental application, please contact The Housing Registry for more information before approaching a third party verifier.
