When my hours were cut in half in November, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Sunday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $3,750. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by February, we must leave. I have three school-aged 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. 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 $3,750 goes: • Rent arrears (4 months): $2,650 • Late fees and court costs: $165 • Utilities in arrears: $110 • First month of rent as a buffer: $825 Thank you so much. - Avery

              Sure. The biggest one is rent arrears (4 months), $2,650. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one.

          • Hope it all works out, Avery. Gave what I could, wish it was more.

            • thanks for sharing this, Avery. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Sent it to 30 people at work.

              • Hope it all works out, Avery. Shared this with my family. Wish I lived closer to Jakarta Barat so I could bring a meal.
