Assistance in Payment of Rents
The Government announced that persons negatively affected by COVID-19 can receive benefits that cover up to 80% of the rent.
The persons who are eligible for this benefit are:
- Persons who lost their employment and hence are not receiving any wage
- Persons who are temporarily suspended on unpaid leave
- Self employed person whose income has fallen significantly
- Persons experiencing domestic violence.
The objective of this benefit is to ensure to the extent possible that tenants can pay the rent, and thus safeguard their residence.
