We of course are planning to meet with a real estate CPA to clarify these questions, but I'm trying to be as prepared as possible and understand as much as I can before meeting with them.

Hey there @David Tang - I actually didn't ever hear of a program that was offering a 12 month stipend...someone I know did it back when it was 6 months and now my understanding was a 3-month stipend with a potential renewal for 3 months.We have wanted to use the Chicago program ASERAP (happy to share their contact info), but fall in line with others regarding employment...the most important thing is income to pay after they move-in because if you get into a sticky situation down the road the upfront rent won't matter.Definitely following this thread to see if anyone has placed migrants and understand what they did for income requirements.

If you understand how to do that then you'll rise above competition and market saturation won't matter.
