If you weren't on Section 8 when you were evicted, yes. If you were on Section 8 (now known as the Housing Choice Voucher Program) and were evicted because of violation of lease or non-payment of rent, you could lose your voucher, something that your Housing Program Coordinator and his supervisor can decide on a case-by-case basis. Let's clarify that an eviction is not a simple note by the landlord asking you to move: it's a court proceeding petitioni9ng a judge or magistrate to force you to move out.

Absolutely! If you're on the Voucher program and you are evicted, you lose your voucher and may not be able to regain it for at least five years, depending on the rules set by the local Housing Authority, at which time you'll have to reapply.

That shouldn't affect you. Just send your portion of the rent to his address.

Absolutely! However a judgment for eviction must be issued by the judge or magistrate before this can happen. Most evictions involving Section 8 can be settled out of court.
