can i get housing help when i'm an online student?
I'm married over 24 and have 3 kids. I did my FAFSA already i got both pell and stafford loans and i pay nothing out of pocket. I choose to do online because i have a 2 yr old and can't afford the price of daycare in my area and only have on car which my husband needs for work. I was going to start looking for work but thought this would be a better route. But because i do online classes can i get the help and if so who do i contact?

The housing assistance programs already have VERY LONG waiting lists. Think in terms of 5 years from now. The programs also depend on household income. Whether or not you would qualify is hard to say, because your husband has income.
You can do a Google search for 'low income housing (your city)' or 'Section 8 housing vouchers' to get some idea. Basically, the 'idea' that you are going to find is what I said above. Those programs already have tons of applicants and waiting lists. Some of them, like Section 8, only very rarely even take new applicants because they have so many already waiting. And low-income housing units also rarely have vacancies. People aren't moving out of those buildings. They are holding onto their units. So those places are 'full up', and most of those also already have waiting lists.
Bottom line is that it's really doubtful that you are going to find housing assistance anywhere in the near future.
