Renting with FHEPS in Elmhurst: the short version
- 1Check that you fit the program. FHEPS is for households with a child under 18 or a pregnant household member, who receive or are eligible for Cash Assistance, and who are facing eviction or lost housing because of domestic violence or a health or safety problem.
- 2Bring the eviction paper. The eviction notice, court summons, or landlord's formal rent demand is the document that moves an application.
- 3Apply through HRA, Homebase, or Housing Court. All three routes end at HRA.
- 4Pair it with a One-Shot Deal if you owe back rent. FHEPS pays rent going forward.
- 5If you are moving, search inside the rent limit. When the plan is a new apartment, HRA has to approve the rent before you sign.
- 6Keep the case open. FHEPS continues as long as you stay eligible for Cash Assistance.
