JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — The City of Jacksonville’s Housing and Community Development Division will be distributing more than $4 million of federal funds to Duval County residents who are unable to pay their mortgage payments due to a loss of income related to COVID-19.
The program will provide up to six months of delinquent mortgage payments or $7,500, whichever is less. The payment will be made directly to the mortgage company and not to the individual.
As part of the application, the owner and occupant of the property must show loss of income, proof of delinquency, as well as a W-9 form from their lender.
