Government Shut Down

[Brittany King]

Hello all. Thank you for taking the time to read my post. When the government shuts down will landlords receive payment for their section 8 tenants?

Looking at news articles from the last time this happened it looks like it depends on how responsible your state is.  Most states will have a reserve that they would continue paying from but once that dries up you could have issues, see this news article from 2013 about Massachusetts.
