After a sudden layoff at the hotel, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Friday a final eviction notice 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 May, we must leave.
I've 1 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 weekend shifts, 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 $3,000 goes:
• Late fees and court costs: $175
• Utilities in arrears: $310
• Rent arrears (4 months): $2,515
Thanks for reading all this.

Sending love, Björn. Shared this with my family. Blessings.
this could happen to any of us. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Tlaquepaque.
wishing you the best, Björn. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. All the best
