Non-Section 8 Tenant Wants to Sublease to a Section 8 Tenant

Hi there, 

Here is a strange question.  This is specific to Chicago, IL for non-owner occupied properties.

How do you handle subleases?  What's the most efficient way to do them?  Do I screen my tenant's selection or do they do it on their own.

Now, what about when they want to sublease to a Section 8 tenant?  Fair Housing in Chicago protects Section 8 voucher holders, does this also apply to sublease? Can a landlord deny a Section 8 prospect?

Thanks,
