Not sure which voucher you have?
It depends on where you recertify.
• If you recertify at 100 Gold Street then your voucher is HPD.
• If you recertify at 350 Livingston in Brooklyn, 1 Fordham Plaza in the Bronx, 55 West 125th Street in Manhattan, 59-17 Junction Blvd in Corona (Queens) OR 120 Stuyvesant Place in Staten Island then your voucher is NYCHA.
If you register at 25 Beaver Street in Manhattan then you have New York State housing and are therefore not eligible for Work Rewards.
