Indiana Governor Eric Holcomb has extended the prohibition on evictions, foreclosures and the disconnection of utility services.

The prohibition on evictions from rental properties and on filing foreclosures are both extended through July 31.

Hoosiers struggling to pay rent due to the ongoing pandemic may be eligible for rental assistance. Applications for the $25-million Indiana COVID-19 Rental Assistance Program will be accepted online beginning Monday, July 13 at 9 a.m.

Utilities, both regulated by the Indiana Utility Regulatory Commission and non-regulated, are prohibited to service disconnections through August 14.

Holcomb’s executive order also extends temporary licensing of the following health care workers who do not currently hold an active license to practice for an additional 30 days:

  • medical professionals who retired or became inactive in the last five years
  • medical professionals who hold licenses in other states
  • certain medical students and graduates
