Abstract: To respond to the health threat caused by COVID-19, federal, state, and local governments have taken unprecedented or exceedingly rare actions, including border closures, restrictions on travel, stay-at-home orders, mask requirements, and eviction moratoria. Despite these best efforts, COVID-19 continues to spread and further action is needed. Eviction moratoria—like quarantine, isolation, and social distancing—can be an effective public health measure utilized to prevent the spread of communicable disease. Eviction moratoria facilitate self-isolation by people who become ill or who are at risk for severe illness from COVID-19 due to an underlying medical condition. They also allow state and local authorities to more easily implement stay-at-home and social distancing directives to mitigate the community spread of COVID-19. Furthermore, housing stability helps protect public health because homelessness increases the likelihood of individuals moving into congregate settings, such as homeless shelters, which then puts individuals at higher risk to COVID-19. This Non-Substantive Change Request is submitted for the addition of language to the Declaration Form and proposes use of a fillable PDF version of the Declaration. There is no change to the previously approved burden.

Emergency Justfication: Emergency clearance is requested for modification of Expiration Date on Declaration Form, as Evictions Order has been extended.
