Frequently asked questions

The application goes through the following steps, not necessarily in this order.

• Application - Traditional due dilligence of background checks, credit checks, personal references, etc.
• Income & Asset Verification - Our compliance department reviews supporting documentation to verify income eligibility. 
• Panel Interview - We set you up with an interview before the Decatur Artist Commission to determine preference point allocation.   Come with a portfolio and speaking points that legitimize artistic merit.

We aim to process applications in an expedient manner and aim for 10-day processing.  Here are some suggestions to expedite this process:

• Notify your references that we will be calling (answer unknown numbers).
• Submit all supporting documentation listed in the application cover letter.
• Do not leave any items blank on the application.
