Who is eligible?
 
Millions of Australians are eligible to be NRAS tenants. In Queensland, the only two requirements are that you are registered on the Department of Communities One Social Housing Waitlist and that your Gross Income is less than the eligibility cut-off for your household type. The following table outlines the example income limits;

 4  $91,048  $105,105  $119,162  $133,219  $147,276
 
The above table doesn't cover all situations, but should be used as a guide; for example, a couple with two children would have a maximum income of $86,710, while a single parent with one child would have a limit of $58,638.
 
Once you are in an NRAS property, your income can increase by up to 25% for two consecutive years before you are ineligible for the Scheme.
