The Applicant/Tenant/Property Owner portals are your centralized online location for all necessary agreements, forms, tenant information, payments, inspections and more.  The system has been updated and as of February 2019, all transactions MUST be made through Assistance Connect.  If you have an old account on the previous portal, please register a new account with Assistance Connect (link below). 

All three (Applicant/Tenant/Property Owner) portals can be accessed through the Assistance Connect link below:
https://www.assistancecheck.com/. A pin number is required to create the account.  If you have not received a pin number in writing, please contact Customer Service at: SHC-CustomerService@dca.nj.gov or call us toll free at 844-216-6988.
