What documentation will I be asked to provide to receive assistance?

To receive assistance you will need to provide documents to verify your income, a rental agreement, as well as documents from your landlord.

For income verification, you will need to provide:

  • Pay stub dated in the last 30 days that includes your name, your employer’s name and hours and/or amount year to date (YTD), OR
  • A notice of termination from your employer OR a claim for unemployment benefits dated after March 1, 2020, that includes your name, employer’s name, and date of termination, OR
  • If you cannot provide any of the above, you must submit a loss of income attestation form.

For verification of your residence you will need to provide a copy of your lease or month-to-month rental agreement showing current rent amount, who rent is paid to, signature(s), and where a check should be sent.

You landlord will also need to provide for you a W9 for each property that a payment is being made to and a rental ledger that validates the current balance owed for your residence as of July 1, 2020, and reflective of the period of financial impact due to COVID-19 (for example copies of the ledger from January 2020 through the current month).
