Thank you for your interest in obtaining Wisconsin Emergency Rental Assistance. In order to qualify for a rental assistance benefit, you must meet the requirements listed below and provide in a timely fashion required documentation.
Our agency will be providing these benefits for all Wisconsin counties with the exception of Brown, Dane, Milwaukee, and Waukesha.
Participation for WERA benefits will only result in a rental assistance payment if and when all requirements have been met and documentation has been provided.
After completion of your WERA pre-application at wera.help, you will promptly receive an email with detailed instructions and the necessary WERA income attestation and WERA renter verification forms required to complete your application. Upon accessing the wera.help website with the code provided in the email, you will be able to upload the required documentation to complete your application. Should your landlord not be a current participant in the WERA program on behalf of their tenant, we will assist you in providing the landlord with a simple landlord vendor agreement form. This will be necessary for providing rental payments to them.
WERA recipients may also be eligible for utility payment assistance through the WERA program.
Should you have any questions or need any further information or assistance, please do not hesitate to email us at support@wera.help. One of our dedicated WERA services staff members will shortly respond to your inquiry.
