Maintaining your RGI application
If you have an existing RGI application, sign up for your online account. Through your online account, you can manage your application for Rent-Geared-to-Income (RGI) housing and receive important information and notifications.
You must keep your application up to date, including your contact information and required documents to maintain your eligibility and ensure housing providers are able to reach you at the time of offer. If you do not keep your application up to date, it could result in a housing offer being counted as a refusal or your file being cancelled.
The Oxford County may use the information from your application to identify other housing benefits for which you may be eligible.
On an annual basis, to maintain your place on the Centralized Waiting List (CWL), you must:
1. Log into your online account.
2. Upload the most recent years Notice of Assessment (NOA) for every member of your household 16 and older, or proof of their status as a full-time student. Eligible Special Priority Program applicants, those with approved priority access based on currently experiencing homelessness, and newcomer applicants on the CWL for less than one year are not required to provide their NOA for the previous year.
3. Review the information on your application to ensure it is correct.
4. Ensure all household members 16 years of age and older sign the Consent and Declaration forms and upload them to your account.
