Renters are still protected from evictions in 10 states, even after the national ban expired

To begin, at least four states – Massachusetts, Nevada, New York and Oregon – are temporarily banning evictions of those with a pending rental assistance application.

If you haven’t applied for the aid yet and are worried about eviction, you should do so as soon as possible, experts say. The National Low Income Housing Coalition has a state-by-state list of the 484 programs giving out the aid.

The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau also has ένα νέο εργαλείο to help you apply for rental relief. If you’re approved, you could get up to 18 months of your rent covered.

Evictions are still banned in some places.

Illinois’ eviction moratorium will be in effect through August, and Maryland’s until Αύγουστος 15. The eviction ban in Hawaii expires on Αύγουστος 6.

Στην Καλιφόρνια, όπου όσοι 1.6 εκατομμύρια ενοικιαστές μπορεί να έχουν καθυστερήσει, οι περισσότεροι ιδιοκτήτες δεν μπορούν να προχωρήσουν στις εξώσεις μέχρι τον Οκτώβριο.

In Washington, D.C., landlords can’t begin evictions again until Aug. 26, and only at that point if they’d filed the paperwork prior to the pandemic. In these cases, you must be given 30 days notice. Other evictions in D.C. can’t resume until Oct. 12, and you must be provided with at least 60 days notice.

Για να πληρούν τις προϋποθέσεις, οι ενοικιαστές πρέπει να υποβάλουν μια μορφή δυσκολίας στον ιδιοκτήτη τους.

Other state policies are a little more complicated, but can help renters stay in their homes nonetheless.

For example, renters in Oregon can’t be evicted for rent owed between the months of April 2020 and June 2021, and they have until the end of February 2022 to make up those payments.

Similarly, in Washington, landlords are not allowed to serve an eviction for rental arrears racked up between Feb. 29, 2020 and July 31, 2021.

Meanwhile, in Connecticut, landlords can’t move forward with an eviction unless they’ve applied for federal rental assistance. And if they file an eviction before October, they need to provide tenants with 30 days’ notice.

The rules can get complicated fast, and sometimes landlords ignore them.
