Dear Tenants,                                                          April 14, 2020

        The news I bring today is regarding the Federal Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act). If you are a Social Security beneficiary which most, if not all, of you are, expect your stimulus check via direct deposit. You do not have to file any information or take any further action other than to wait!

If you have any questions about how much you may receive in your stimulus check, please call your personal tax accountant as it is based upon your most-recent tax filings.

-        If you filed for 2019, the check will be based upon that year

-        If you did not file yet, the check will be based upon 2018 filing

        Although the COVID-19 spread has been slowing in New York City, Oneida County cases continue to rise at a steady pace. That means it is more important than ever to continue our precautions of not going out unless absolutely necessary. If you must go out, you should be wearing a face mask whether that be cloth, a scarf, N95, or KN95.

Governor Cuomo signed an Executive Order stating that all essential employees must wear face masks while in contact with clients. Therefore, if you see a heightened level of staff wearing masks do not be alarmed, this is just policy moving forward.

Stay safe & healthy,

Dominick M. Manfredo

Executive Director / CEO
