The City of Corpus Christi has closed the application portal for the Corpus Christi Emergency Rental Assistance Program to new applications.
The applications under review are expected to expend the remaining program funding. The City will continue to process the 1,160 applications that were submitted prior to the portal closing.
If a tenant’s application has been active in the last seven days but has not been submitted, the applicant will receive an email advising they have 14 days to complete and submit the application for consideration.
Applicants are encouraged to check the status of their application at www.cctexas.com/erap.Submitting an application does not guarantee that funds will be approved.
