Need information about New York City Housing Court? Housing Court Answers is the first and best place to go for information about Housing Court.
Call us: 212-962-4795
Housing Court Answers provides telephone assistance from 9 am to 5 pm, Monday through Thursday, and 9 am to 1 pm on Fridays. During these hours, the staff and volunteers provide information regarding Housing Court and Housing Court procedures, landlord/tenant rules and regulations, enforcement of housing code violations and other housing issues to New York City residents, community based organizations, and other service providers.
Queens residents can call our Queens office at 718-657-0599.
NEED HELP PAYING BACK RENT?
You should call our hotline if you need help paying back rent. Call us if you have a 1) case in Housing Court, and 2) a good reason for falling behind in your rent (for example, you had a death in the family, serious medical illness, loss of job, or reduction in hours at work), 3) your income is high enough that you can pay your future rent, and 4) the amount of arrears is "manageable". Housing Court Answers does not provide direct financial help -- we will refer you to a charitable organization if you meet the criteria or provide you with information about the Human Resources Administration’s rules for assistance with back rent.
VISIT OUR INFORMATION TABLES
Staff and volunteers at our Information Tables provide information about Housing Court, court procedures, court forms and can answer questions about housing. They can also provide referrals to legal service providers and other eviction prevention organizations, resources, and agencies. Most staff members speak English and Spanish.
