Court Based Rental Assistance Program

[Xingcai Wu]

Hi BP,

I’m in Will County, Joliet Illinois. Me and my eviction tenant are applying for the Court Based Rental Assistance Program together so she can pay the rent she owe me without an Eviction. My question is what if the rental assistance gets denied. How can I still recover what she owe me? 

Thank you so much,

Wu

@Xingcai Wu The court will generally guide you to a program they know is funded. There are many different programs available, but not all of them still have funds to give out. The approval process can take several weeks or several months depending on the program.
