Landlords Can Now Start The Eviction Process

Evictions may be taking place sooner than the executive order stated!!
Despite the moratorium Landlords can now start the eviction process the government says. Of course there are guidelines but there are also loopholes that are giving landlords the green light in the eviction process.
For example, the order will not prevent landlords from starting eviction proceedings, as long as the actual eviction of a covered person for non payment of rent does NOT take place during the period of the Order.
Further, landlords do not have to notify their tenants of the eviction moratorium and the CDC’s declaration form that renters must fill out to qualify.
Renters need to be aware that they must fit other criteria, such as having earned $99,000 or less as a single person (or $198,000 or less as a couple) and facing homelessness if evicted. There may also be penalties or even jail time if the declaration form is not filled out accurately.
