Tenant Declaration Form

Governor Pritzker has extended the COVID-19 related Executive Orders for the Illinois Eviction Moratorium. This is intended to protect tenants who submit a signed Tenant Declaration Form from being evicted or removed from their residence through May 1, 2021. Under the Executive Order, tenants must complete the Tenant Declaration Form and provide it to their landlords.
