Grant money may be used to pay current and past due rent, utilities, home energy costs and other housing expenses incurred due to COVID-19. The Emergency Rental Assistance Program prioritizes assistance for households that have income totaling less than half the area median household income or where an individual has been unemployed for more than 90 days. Individuals who have qualified for unemployment benefits, experienced a reduction in household income, had other financial hardship due to COVID-19, or can demonstrate a risk of homelessness or housing instability can also apply.

The act allows landlords and owners to assist renters in seeking grant money and allows the landlords to apply on behalf of a renter in their dwellings. If a landlord submits an application, the landlord must obtain the tenant’s signature either wet or electronic, provide the tenant a copy of the application and use any payments received to satisfy the tenant’s rental obligations.
