Chicago eviction moratorium

My tenant was paying her rent every month up until they came out with a $5000 rental assistance grant. She was denied because she wasn't behind and now she hasn't paid her rent ever since and won't answer any of my calls unless I call from someone else's phone. As of today, she owes me $6140. Her lease is up on March 31st but I have a feeling she isn't going to leave. I served her a non-renewal notice AND a 5 day notice but a lawyer told me that judges are not granting evictions unless there is a some safety reason that the tenant cannot stay there. I spoke with other lawyers and they said they weren't even taking eviction cases because of this. The tenant is an essential worker at a pediatrician's office. What can I do? This is very upsetting!
