Eviction due to non-payment in Austin

I have a tenant in Austin who has not paid several months of rent.  She has a good-paying job, and her employment has not been affected.  What options do I have right now?  Does she need to fill out a CDC form to be shielded from eviction?

I have done some reading on the eviction process, and it seems to start with a Notice of Proposed Eviction.  Then I give the tenant 60 days to catch up on back rent.  Once the moratorium is lifted (and rent still has not been paid), then I can post a Notice to Vacate and proceed with filing an eviction.  Is this a correct understanding of the major steps?

Please respond with information specific to only Texas or Austin.  Thanks.
