If you or someone you know are one of the many FHA-borrowers in communities across the country having difficulty paying your mortgage due to the pandemic, HELP IS AVAILABLE.
FHA’s special COVID-19 mortgage payment forbearance is currently available to FHA-insured borrowers. If you’re behind or about to be behind on your mortgage payments because of COVID-19 and you have not yet requested a forbearance from your service, you can request up to 6 months of forbearance initially, and an additional 6 months if you need it. You must request this assistance from your mortgage servicer by June 30, 2021! Are you already on forbearance, started your forbearance period on or before June 30, 2020, and now need more time? After 12 months of COVID-19 forbearance, you’re eligible for up to two additional 3-month extensions from your mortgage servicer.
