Worker Application

APPLICATION PROCESS

Prior to applying, applicants must confirm they meet the eligibility requirements policies regarding pre-arrival payments and cancelling your reservation.
Applicants should also gather all of the required eligibility verification documents to upload on the application as you will not be able to save and return to complete the application at a later time.
Applicants who do not meet the income or credit score requirements, will need a Guarantor to be approved for housing at The Webster Apartments.
- Secure your Guarantor
  - To ensure you do not hold up your application review process, secure your guarantor and have them get started on their application!
  - See “Step 2” for more information.

COMPLETE the Worker Housing Application and upload the required eligibility verification documents listed below:
- PROOF OF EMPLOYMENT: Webster accepts a variety of documents to verify the eligibility and physical office/work location of worker applicants. See Accepted Forms of Employment Eligibility Verification Documents for more information.
- IDENTIFICATION: A copy of a government issued I.D. (i.e.: Passport) is required to verify a worker applicant’s date of birth and gender.
SUBMIT your application for review.

SECURE YOUR GUARANTOR (If Applicable)
- If you know you will be required to have a guarantor prior to submitting your application, your guarantor may apply and complete the necessary documents at this time.
- Your Guarantor must complete the Guarantor Application and fill in and complete pages 1 through 4 of the Guarantor Agreement and bring the Acknowledgement (page 5) to be notarized
  - Guarantors will need to provide proof of income:
    - Two (2) most recent consecutive pay stubs OR
    - Most recent tax return (must be prepared by an accredited Tax Firm and/or a CPA/Financial Advisor unless you are self-employed) – First two pages only, showing adjusted gross income
- - The Guarantor Agreement & Acknowledgement must be completed, signed, notarized, and uploaded to the Guarantor Application prior to being approved to stay at Webster Apartments. Your application will not be processed unless this document has been provided
  - NOTE: Guarantor Agreement cannot be accepted via email. Guarantor is required to upload the Guarantor Agreement on the Guarantor application.

All applications will be reviewed by Webster’s Admissions Department within 2-3 business days.
Webster will then conduct a credit and background report on all applicants who are eligible based on the review of their initial application.
- Credit and Background Report*
  - On the application, all worker applicants will be asked to give consent to The Webster Apartments to run a detailed credit and criminal background report through an outside agency.
  - To be eligible for housing at The Webster Apartments, all worker applicants (with a valid U.S. social security number) must meet our standards of a satisfactory credit and background report (credit score >650, no record of criminal convictions, etc.)
  - Applicants whose credit reports are deemed UNSATISFACTORY will be ineligible for housing at The Webster Apartments unless you have a Guarantor who meets the income and credit requirements.
  - Applicants whose background reports are deemed UNSATISFACTORY will not be eligible to stay at Webster Apartments.

Applicants with incomplete applications will receive a request for additional information before moving on to the credit and background report process.

Applicants who meet all of Webster’s eligibility requirements will receive a pre-approval letter via email indicating that a room is being placed on a temporary hold for the applicant’s requested date of check-in.
The pre-approval letter will include the applicant’s check-in date and explanation of all pre-arrival monies due to include the room & board balance covering the first 4 weeks of stay.
To secure the reservation, the applicant will be required to make a $500 payment towards their room & board balance within 5 days or the room hold will be cancelled.
If the applicant cancels the reservation before arrival, a cancellation fee may apply.

Within 2-3 business days of receipt of the $500 payment to secure the reservation, the applicant will receive a formal confirmation letter confirming their reservation and outlining their pre-arrival balance due AT LEAST 8 weeks prior to check-in.
The pre-arrival balance will reflect their room & board balance less the $500 payment made plus the one-time amenity fee charge of $215.
The pre-arrival balance payment may be made any time after receiving this letter but MUST be received at least 8 weeks prior to check-in.
Failure to remit this payment 8 weeks prior to check-in may result in a cancellation of the reservation.
If the applicant cancels the reservation before arrival, a cancellation fee may apply.
