[quote=Anonymous]Wow, you’d think landlords in DC would be more familiar with DC’s landlord-tenant laws and all the covid-related housing legislation and programs. Utility companies cannot shutoff services (water, gas, electric) during the emergency period. ERAP are out of funds and has essentially been replaced by StayDC. Either a landlord or a tenant can initiate an application with StayDC, which covers up to a maximum of 18 months of rent. It’s definitely not a perfect system, but tenants who receive public assistance are eligible (at least, receiving public assistance is not necessarily an automatic disqualification). Virginia, and many other states, received federal funds for the same-type of programs although I don’t know what it’s called in VA or MD. But, from what I’ve heard, the application process is much easier and streamlined and funds have been quickly dispersed in Virginia (and directly to landlords, if they are willing to participate).
