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 so much for your time spent sharing your experiences and knowledge. I'm always hoping to learn a little more about how things work for others and its awesome to get a peak into a landlords side for a change....
I wish you were my landlord from the sounds of it. My situation is this: our lease expired in December. Previously, in September, my landlord inquired as to my intentions on staying once the lease expired to which I answered in the affirmative. Then, at the beginning of December he contacted me to tell me where to obtain a copy of the new lease and that the rent would be increasing by $200. I had agreed to renew when he first asked. Now I feel like I got suckered. Anyways, I'm renting a house from a real estate agent that happens to be the owner of the house. It was as "ideal" as I could have hoped for at first. With a landlord/owner that lives in the area, him and his wife met with me and my young family. (It's my wife and 3 young boys, only 1 of which is even school age) We never missed a payment, not throughout the entire pandemic. I've struggled to pay on time but I've never gone more than 2 weeks over and that with his knowledge before hand. So based off your response and again, I realize it's just your opinion and I can't expect others to have the same opinion as you, but seems as though I am right in my less than positive feelings about this whole situation. More specifically about how much landlord decided to handle me. So now I'm month to month stuck paying the increases rent due to lack of options. Praying something comes available or that a miracle happens and God softens his heart or something because it's only like a Boulder tide around my neck. Dragging me down more every day so that it feels like a I'll never manage to break even - Member since 2022 · 3 posts · 0 votes4y

@Account Closed I agree! Still do not know if the check was really sent haven’t been able to get in touch with my landlord. They didn’t even send a email stating I was approved (ramp). I emailed MHC and they responded and said I was approved. I submitted my application on 10/02/2021

❤Recertification can take aslong as the original application, or even longer, unless you email them on Mississippi Home Corporation! Emailing might help your process! Peace guys❤
- Member since 2021 · 35 posts · 8 votes4y❤I hope all of ya'lls rent applications work out! Hopefully the program reaches people that really need it!❤

First time.....
10/24/2021 - submitted application (first time applicant)
12/07/2021 - application under review
12/08/2021 - approved pending payment
12/09/2021 - application in QC review
12/10/2021 - batched
12/15/2021 - I was told my check was sent out this today
12/21/2021 - I got the check in the mail to give to my landlord since they were not participating
01/2022 - it changed to "Application Has Been Paid"
02/08/2022 - I checked and it was that status for a while then went to "Batched"
so I guess I will get the check again if they did it like before
12/15/2021 - I submitted my recertification paperwork since it takes so long
The utilities took the longest it didn't post to my account until a week ago on 01/28/2022
does that help? - Member since 2022 · 4 posts · 0 votes4y

I submitted my application for Ramp Era November 12, 2021, then is was reviewed on January 7, 2022 and it has been in “Application under review” since January 7th. How will I know if something is needed or how long will it take to be approved?
I’ve called the number provider and they can’t seem to tell me anything but the application is under review! Duh, I know that already!Can you message the processor on the portal?? I would 100% message them and ask for an update.
I did and mine responded to me

You need to tell them you're approved for assistance so they don't turn off the power. I gave them proof I applied and got approved and they put a note on my account to not disconnect. Took 6 weeks for the payment to post but they shouldn't have cut them off
- Member since 2021 · 76 posts · 14 votes4yWhat's the other program?
Quote from @Susan Maneck:
Right now, it is up to the landlord although there were times during the pandemic when we were not allowed to evict providing they could certify that their problems paying the rent was due to the pandemic. Right now I am forced to evict my tenants who were getting RAMP money because they are now five months behind. If you can apply through a different program do so. I have another tenant who is paying through an entirely different program and they pay me 3 months in advance!
Before the pandemic if tenants were going to be late in their rent I wanted to hear that from them before the rent was due not afterwards. Otherwise, they would have a late fee for sure.
- Member since 2021 · 71 posts · 8 votes4yIt is Tallahatchie Electric and ramp already pledged my past due but that was over a month ago and they don't care and won't work with you at all it's either pay your bill or we cut you off

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.

Quote from @Susan Maneck:
That is what mine is doing. The deposited one cent and are still saying denied. But since I've gotten two earlier payments from them it couldn't be because they couldn't verify the property. It is the recertification that apparently got denied.
did they batch your payment or say application paid on status before denial or did they just go straight to denial after review
