What Indiana law says
| Application / screening fees | No state cap or refund rule on application or screening fees was found.

| Statewide ban on refusing Section 8 / source of income | No. Indiana has no statewide source-of-income protection, and local units may not adopt or enforce an ordinance that requires (or has the effect of requiring) a landlord to participate in Section 8 or a similar housing program. Indiana's state civil rights law was not separately reviewed for an income category; none is known. Source: IC 36-1-3-8.5 |
