Not renewing lease but also have not paid rent

[Brittaney Abodunde]

We currently have a tenant whose lease is coming to an end at the end of March. We plan on not renewing their lease. However they have forwarded us a letter from Community Action Covid -19 emergency rental service which prohibits us from evicting them. We do not understand the program or the process and we can’t seem to get anyone on the phone to answer questions. They have bling paid Februarys rent and I doubt that they plan on playing March. What can we do! Can we still send the letter stating we are choosing not to renew their lease? Will we keep there deposit to cover past rent not received. Are we just suppose to cover them? Technically we are not evicting them because the lease is finished. Can someone please help me understand this better? Thank you
