As the impacts of COVID-19 began ramping up around March / April 2020, the NSW Government announced temporary measures to restrict when landlords can evict tenants due to rental arrears as a result of COVID-19.

These restrictions were originally due to end on 15 October 2020. They have now been extended until 26 March 2021.
