Am I to receive an extra ballot number in the latest GSH (GSH 2024)? How does the HA determine the flat selection order for applicants with extra ballot number?

Persons allocated with extra ballot number

An extra ballot number will be allocated to applicants of “GSH 2024” who failed to purchase a GSH flat in “GSH 2022” and “GSH 2023”, including those who were invited for flat selection but failed to purchase a flat eventually as well as those who did not get a chance for flat selection, on the basis that all such applications were made by the same applicant.

The HA will conduct a ballot to determine the sequence of the last two digits of application numbers and extra ballot number (if any) held by applicants. Based on the ballot result, the HA will randomly generate the order of all applicants by the last two digits within different application categories by computer. The flat selection order for applicants with extra ballot numbers will be determined by the ballot number with higher priority according to the ballot results.
 

Persons not eligible for the extra ballot number

• any person who was not an applicant but just a family member listed in the application form in “GSH 2022” or “GSH 2023"; and  
• applicants whose applications were cancelled by HA in “GSH 2022” or “GSH 2023”
