When my hours were cut in half in June, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Sunday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $3,000. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by September, 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 night deliveries, 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 $3,000 goes: • Rent arrears (3 months): $2,500 • Utilities in arrears: $310 • Late fees and court costs: $190 I hope life is good to you. - Jack
