Reporting

Renters and landlords can find out what emergency rental assistance covers, how it works, and who’s eligible on the interagency housing portal hosted by the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB).

Reporting Guidance

All Emergency Rental Assistance (ERA1 and ERA2) Recipients must submit full compliance reports each calendar quarter. Unless otherwise noted, the Quarterly Reports are due by the 15th of the month following the end of the quarterly reporting period. Tribes, Tribally Designated Housing Entities, and the Department of Hawaiian Home Lands are required to submit only a subset of data elements for their Quarterly Reports.
ERA Reporting Guidance v 3.2 (03/29/22) provides detailed information on ERA1 and ERA2 reporting requirements and reporting deadlines. Please see Appendix 9 for scenarios for reporting on ERA recipient allocations of ERA funds to subrecipients, contractors and beneficiaries.
