If I accept ERA assistance payments, am I required to sign an non-eviction clause?

Yes, as the Treasury requires in FAQ 32.  Landlords are required to sign a non-eviction clause, however the clause is restricted to rent related eviction. The language is placed in the Landlord Attestation.  

It reads " A tenant receiving ERA assistance for prospective rental payments will not be subject to eviction proceedings for nonpayment during the period by the assistance."
