Yes, but do you really want to? It is an entitlement program. Canceling such is a personal decision you must make. But remember, if you do, and you want to return to the program, you will have to rejoin the waiting list when one is next available, which may be a long time, and restart the process.
you can't get it back once you lose it..you have to apply it again..all over again..unless the decision that was made to terminate your voucher is reversed later on appeal.

Section 8 how can you get a tenant permantly kicked off of section 8?
Talk to the housing authority that issued the voucher. This is a pretty vicious thing to do, not that it isn't sometimes warranted.Is the person or family using drugs? What would be your reason for wanting to harass someone on the housing choice voucher? Might just want to live your life if you're not being bothered.
Section 8 housing when already have housing?
Either you are talking about getting a voucher while you are already renting, or you are talking about getting a voucher while you are on public housing. In the case of the former, if you are already renting a home, and you want your landlord to be able to accept that voucher, yes, that is possible. If the house is suitable for your particular household, and the property meets housing quality standards, then you can use your voucher for your landlord to receive housing assistance payments on your behalf. In the case of the latter, this means that you could find a home that is privately owned by a landlord who is willing to accept that voucher for housing assistance payments on your behalf, and move out of the public housing unit.
Can you apply for section 8 twice?
Yes, and many people do this for valid reasons. They may find it difficult to port their original voucher to the new jurisdiction, so it is not uncommon for voucher holders to have their names on the waiting list in other jurisdictions where they can jump to that jurisdiction and use its voucher as opposed to porting their original voucher. You might want to check with that Housing Authority to see if you can use your original voucher to port over to them: they may absorb the cost. If you do apply for the Housing Choice Voucher Program (HCVP, formerly the Section 8 Program) anywhere, while you already are in another, you will need to give up the voucher of the old program first. I highly suggest you talk this over with your original Housing Authority as they can help you better through this means.
