Applications for HomeHelpMN will now be accepted as long as there are funds available in the program. While this removes August 17 as a deadline, homeowners should still apply as soon as possible.
Applications accepted while funds are available
HomeHelpMN has lifted the August deadline for applying.
Homeowners with past-due mortgage payments and other eligible housing expenses can now apply for assistance as long as funds remain.
Fund availability depends on the number of eligible homeowners who apply and the amount of assistance requested. A submitted application is not a guarantee of funding availability.
The program budgeted $109 million to help homeowners who experienced a reduction in income or an increase in household expenses as a result of the pandemic. As of July 31, over 4,300 homeowners had requested assistance.
While there is now no application deadline, homeowners with past-due expenses are encouraged to apply as soon as possible.
The HomeHelpMN dashboard is available on the program website.
To begin an application or learn more, visit HomeHelpMN.org or call 800-388-3226.
