RAMP/ERA Program in Mississippi

Has anyone applied for funds through the Rental Assistance Program in Mississippi?  Do you know if any of the funds have been disbursed at this point, or what the time line might be.

I tried calling the toll free number and speaking to someone directly. They’re not disclosing any information. Just telling you to use the portal to monitor your application. 

 I applied for a tenant my app is now saying application pending approval is that a good sign 

 Yes! By tomorrow the application should say “Application in QC review”. My QC review took two days before the status was changed to “Application Approved”.

    Thank you all for the responses. I appreciate your help!. I received my approval email on yesterday which shows the amount and states that payment will be made via ACH within the next 10 days. I will keep you updated !

    So I just spoke with a representative at RAMP regarding my application status of waiting for Landlord’s outreach response and completion.  She states, If they don’t respond and I get evicted, they pull my application for assistance. Does that sound right?

    @Bankston, No that doesn't sound right. If the landlord declines to participate than you would need to submit W9 and ACH forms, also documentation of their decline.

    Hello Everyone, quick question why does my account shows Landlord “Null” payment amount, processed? Should it have Landlord information? Does anyone know what “NULL” means?

    @Markidha Johnson, only if the landlord choose to participate in the program. Could be system error.

    Anyone know how long after “approved” status changed to “processing payment” status does the payment actually get paid?

    I’ve been waiting since 4/30 and my landlord is about ready to stop believing me.

    You do not have to wait until funds are accepted by Landlord.

    I applied June 17.  It will make a week that my application has been in QC review.  What does this mean, how long will it stay in QC Review, and what's the next phase after this?

    To all: I started this journey on 4/30 when I submitted my app. It took until last Tuesday 8/3  to receive the funds.

    If you are at this step:

    My application status read “application approved”

    Then after a week it read “ payment processing” there was a payment schedule with my landlord name under status. My landlord did not want to participate so I had uploaded a letter she signed stating she did not want to and then also uploaded my schedule form for my bank. You can find that firm under landlord info on the website for RAMP ERA. 
    One week after that the landlord name was gone and the payment schedule read “processed”

    I kept checking portal every day to see if it had updated. It took about a week after that for the money to go into my Acct. But, my status still reads “payment processing” 

    They paid for 4 months of back rent and one month ahead.

    I have reapplied for future payments, (using a different email address) and also the months that I needed back payment. I did not realize I could ask for back missed payments. You can go all the way back to 3/2020. 
    My utilities payment has still not been paid. I was told by customer service that it takes longer to process that portion. She asked if I had a disconnect date, which I did. Then she took my name, the date my electricity would be turned off and my Acct number to the utility and said she would forward this info to processor.
    I hope this helps y’all.
