Can I answer yes to the questions below?

I have been a Lindy Property resident for the past 12 months. I have good rent payment history and I am in good standing (See good standing definition below). The other residents of the apartment are aware of the proposed application and acknowledge that this rent relief from Lindy Resident Emergency Rent Relief Fund is limited to one application per unit per year.

Good Standing is defined as:
The term “current and future” is defined as in residence at a Lindy Community for at least one year.

At awarding of rent relief, the same maximum deficiency of $1,000.

No more than three late fees in the last 12 months.

The loss of income or the cost of funeral expenses or medical bills must significantly impact the family’s resources. The Fund may also be able to pay expenses to bring a child whose parents have died to live with a new family, typically a relative.
