City of Los Angeles Emergency Renters Assistance Program
Council President Nury Martinez announced the launch of the Emergency Renters’ Assistance Subsidy Program for City of Los Angeles residential tenants. The application window for this assistance is Monday, July 13th - Friday, July 17th. Please note that while only tenants may apply for the subsidy, the payment will go directly to the landlord, who will have to agree to City terms to accept the payment. The basic eligibility requirements for tenants are:
They live in a multi-family unit that is located in the City of LA
They can provide proof of tenancy
They earned at or below 80% of Area Median Income prior to March 13, 2020
They can provide documentation that they have suffered a loss or reduction of income due to COVID-19 after March 13, 2020
Note: All tenants residing in the City of Los Angeles who meet the criteria may apply, regardless of immigration status. If you have questions regarding the Public Charge rule and your use of this program/benefit, please contact a qualified immigration attorney. You can find more information and legal resources on public charge here.
ERAS recipients will be chosen via lottery once the application window is closed; no preference will be given based on when during the application window an application was received.
