To qualify for rental assistance, tenants must attest to a financial hardship, like a reduction in work hours, a loss of income, or high medical expenses. There's also an income cap to qualify -- renters must have earned less than $99,000 in 2020 or 2021. There are currently over 400 rental assistance programs in place, and qualifying applicants could receive relief for up to 18 months of rent.
