Eviction moratorium ended, apply for rent help now

  • 08/04/2021

~ from Hennepin County News

The State of Minnesota has announced an end to the eviction moratorium. You will still be protected from eviction for past due rent if you have applied for COVID-19 rent assistance.

Renters in Hennepin County have two options to apply for rent help:

  • Zero Balance Project: Your landlord starts and leads the application process on your behalf
  • RentHelpMN: You or your landlord start the application process

Until October 12, 2021, landlords must give renters a 15-day notice before they file an eviction for not paying rent. Visit Renters Help (211unitedway.org) for legal information and resources for renters.

Key dates

  • June 30: You could be evicted for violating your lease, or if you qualify for COVID-19 rent assistance but refuse to apply.
  • July 14: You could be evicted for violating your lease, but not for not paying rent
  • August 13: Your lease could be terminated if you have not paid rent and are not eligible for COVID-19 rent assistance
