To ensure tenants facing eviction for nonpayment of rent in public housing and properties with project-based rental assistance during the COVID-19 pandemic and other public health emergencies have sufficient time and information to receive emergency rent relief that may help avoid eviction, this final rule requires housing providers participating in those programs to provide both notification about the opportunity to secure emergency funding and additional time that may be used to secure funding after receiving this notice. Additionally, this final rule provides that, in such circumstances, the Secretary may extend the time period before lease termination for nonpayment of rent to 30 days after the tenant has received such information. This extension ensures adequate opportunities for tenants to overcome impediments to secure emergency funding and will prevent unnecessary evictions.
