Your application paperwork

The California Mortgage Relief Program was a one-time federal Homeowner Assistance Fund grant run by the California Housing Finance Agency that covered past-due mortgage and property tax payments for homeowners hit by pandemic hardship. The program has ended and is no longer accepting applications or offering grants, so there is no current homeowner application form.

Steps to apply

  1. The program is closed. You can confirm this on the official site camortgagerelief.org, which states it is no longer accepting applications and no longer offering grants.
  2. If you are behind on your mortgage now, contact a free HUD-certified housing counselor through the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau at consumerfinance.gov/find-a-housing-counselor or call 1-855-411-2372.
  3. If your California home was destroyed or made uninhabitable by a qualified disaster, check the separate CalAssist Mortgage Fund, which is currently open. Apply online at calassistmortgagefund.org or see calhfa.ca.gov/CalAssist.
  4. Contact your loan servicer directly to ask about forbearance, a repayment plan, or a loan modification.
