How long do I have to complete my application?
You will have ten (10) calendar days to complete and submit your application from the day you create it. If your application is incomplete on the tenth day, it will be denied and you must create a new application and begin again.
I have a "rent-to-own" and "lease-to-own" agreement. Can I apply for emergency rental assistance?
For the purposes of the Arkansas Fresh Start COVID-19 Housing Stabilization Program, applicants who have "rent-to-own" and "lease-to-own" agreements are qualified to apply for the program as these types of agreements are considered similar to rental agreements. You will need to be able to give documentation related to these agreements to your caseworker.
Can I reapply if I am denied once?
If you were denied benefits because your landlord refused to accept payment or if you are currently homeless or staying with family or friends due to having no other housing options, you can reapply for benefits.
If you qualify, the Fresh Start Program will pay an amount up to one month’s rent as necessary to pay a security deposit at a new dwelling, and 1.5 months of rent for the new dwelling. The new landlord must agree to accept payment from the program.
If you need to reapply in the future, log into your account and repeat the application process - DO NOT create a new record using the link from the AR Fresh Start website.
