Age Verification Request Form | Deadline To Respond is April 15th

Due to new requirements by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), we now must have age verification forms from our residents.

If you have not done so already, please pick up a form in one of these locations:

  • Fitness Center
  • Oakwood Concierge Desk

The form is also available at IronOaksAZ.com. Once you log in, the top banner will display, showing "55+ Age Verification Form." Fill in the information, list every resident living in your home, along with their birthdates. You can sign the form using your mouse (or your finger if on a touch device). When you click "Submit" on the form, it will be securely, electronically delivered to the person handling the forms.
