The COVID-19 Emergency Eviction and Foreclosure Prevention Act

The COVID-19 Emergency Eviction and Foreclosure Prevention Act of 2020 ensures New York renters and homeowners impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic can safely remain in their homes. The act suspends eviction and foreclosure proceedings to give renters and homeowners the opportunity to submit a hardship declaration. Applications to the Emergency Rental Assistance Program (ERAP) are being accepted.

If you face eviction or foreclosure from loss of income or increased costs due to the COVID-19 pandemic, select and submit the applicable hardship declaration below.
