This assistance is in the form of a no-interest loan that the tenant must begin repayment on within 60 days of it being issued. All assistance is distributed directly to the landlord. Upon issuance, the landlord and tenant must agree on the time frame and terms of the repayment. In order to be eligible, an applicant must compete an application (available at nvrural.org and at our office), reside in Nevada within NRHAs area of jurisdiction, and fall within the listed income limits.
