When the textile factory closed in March, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Friday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $3,500. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by June, 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 extra hours at a market stall, and I'm applying for help from local services, but nothing will arrive in time without the rest of the gap covered here. Funds go to the landlord and nowhere else. Any amount left over after the arrears are cleared will go toward next month's rent. Where the $3,500 goes: • Rent arrears (2 months): $2,050 • Late fees and court costs: $220 • Utilities in arrears: $250 • First month of rent as a buffer: $980 Thanks for being kind about this. - Audrey

      Best of luck, Audrey. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Wish I lived closer to Aurangabad so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Bronx
