1.2 Intake Email: Eligible

This is the response for households that meet your program criteria. Be sure to include the next steps and how long it might take to receive additional follow-ups.

1.2 Intake Email: Ineligible

This is the response for households that do not appear to meet your program criteria. This template will automatically list the “dealbreakers” that the household doesn’t comply with. Assure the applicant they can return to submit additional screening forms anytime there is a change in their household or financial profile. Be sure to include any other housing resources that may be available in your area.
