SALT LAKE CITY â Utah residents will not be able to apply for pandemic rental assistance until March 15 while a new application is being worked on, a spokesperson for the Utah Department of Workforce Services said.
In 2020, $26 million in rental assistance was given throughout the state. Now, more than $200 million from the federal government will help Utahns with rental assistance through the rest of 2021.
âEmergency Rental Assistance is an important program that can help Utah renters impacted by the pandemic to stay in their homes,â said Department of Workforce Services Deputy Director Nate McDonald. âWhile we recognize that a pause in accepting applications may cause concern, it will help to ensure the updated program runs smoothly and will allow local community action program agencies to work through their existing backlog of applications.â
