Post: Tenant is forcing me to accept his section 8 voucher

@Deanna  Thanks for the response. The tenant made the attempt to reach out to the section 8 and they already approved the unit with section compliance.   The section 8 people already sent me the paper works that needs to be signed and return to them. 

@Andew the reason I'm reluctant to take section 8 is that I already have a lease agreement in place for this year and for the next year I might accept her section 8. And it's very tough to reach out to Section 8 people and they are  not responsive enough. What if they take another 4 to 5 months to start paying me. Though they are saying they would pay me all the previous months; portion of the rent. I'm confused if I should go for it or not.

Hello there, 

I need your help. I have a lease with my tenant which is just 3 months old . Currently, the tenant got section 8 approval and asking me to accept the partial amount from section 8 and she stops paying me the amount that section 8 will pay me. So, it seems like I need to sign a contract with section 8 org to get that payment. However, my existing lease with the tenant has another 9 months to get completed. Can my tenant force me to accept section 8 in the middle of an existing lease?
