how long after turning in your application will it take to be approved. How soon after that can a person move.
2. Breann on April 6, 2012

Hi LaTanya and others,

After you submit your application, you should receive a call within 2 weeks to confirm. If you do not hear from us, please call 1-866-386-1123.

As far as how long it takes to move, that largely depends on when vacancies come available that fit your bedroom size needs and we cannot predict that at the moment.

Thank you and please reach out if you have any other concerns.
