Anne Arundel County, Maryland, explicitly gives undocumented households priority for taxpayer-funded housing assistance covering rent, utility bills, security deposits and moving costs. The county’s published rules identify priority households as including: “those with undocumented or mixed immigration/citizenship status.” That language appears directly on the county government’s application page. Other priority categories include homelessness, eviction proceedings and disconnected utilities. The Community Schools Rental Assistance Program can pay for: • Overdue rent. • Electricity, gas, water and internet bills. • Security deposits and first month’s rent. • Moving expenses. • Certain late fees and eviction-related court fees. Maryland’s official FAQ says proof of citizenship is not required. Eligible households can receive repeat assistance, including up to three months of future rent or utilities at a time, with an overall maximum of 15 months. Governor Wes Moore’s office says the statewide program’s FY2027 budget increased from $5 million to $11 MILLION.
