CDC Rental Eviction Moratorium
This order will protect renters making no more than $99,000 ($198,000 for couples) from being evicted from their homes due to non-payment of rent through December 31, 2020. Renters must certify to the following to be covered under this moratorium including:
- They made their best effort to obtain government assistance for rent by applying for the county’s Rental Assistance Program.
- They cannot make a full rent payment because of a loss of income, lay-off, loss of work hours or extraordinary medical expenses.
- They are making a best effort to make timely partial payments as close to the full payment as possible.
- If evicted they would become homeless, need to live in a shelter or need to move into a shared residence where they would be living in close quarters.
- Fill out a certification form and deliver it to their landlord. The form can be found at the CDC website or click the button below.
ALL rent (and potentially late fees) are due when this moratorium expires as this does not cancel rent. Evictions can resume January 1, 2021.
