After a car accident that kept me from work for 12 weeks, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $3,650.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, we must leave.
I have two young children at home. Moving isn't just an expense - it would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
I have started working evenings as a cleaner, and I'm applying for help from local services, but nothing will arrive in time without the rest of the gap covered here.
The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done.
Where the $3,650 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $2,350
• Late fees and court costs: $270
• Utilities in arrears: $230
• First month of rent as a buffer: $800
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

hope this works out for you. Thinking of San Diego.
stay strong. Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Chiang Mai.
