When my hours were cut in half in May, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $2,650.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by August, 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 two part-time jobs, 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 $2,650 goes:
• Rent arrears (4 months): $1,750
• Late fees and court costs: $90
• Utilities in arrears: $130
• First month of rent as a buffer: $680
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

So sorry you're going through this, Hassan. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it
It takes guts to ask. Well done. Greetings from Lalitpur.
Sending good thoughts, Hassan. Hope you get there. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Praying for you, Hassan. Looking forward to the next update. God bless
Wishing you the best. Hope you get there. I'll check back for the next update. Love from Eugene
