When the warehouse closed in August, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $650. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, 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 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 $650 goes: • Rent arrears (2 months): $430 • Late fees and court costs: $55 • Utilities in arrears: $35 • First month of rent as a buffer: $130 Thanks for reading all this.

  • Sending strength, Santhosh. Hope you get there. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. God bless.

    • Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Put this on a community board in Rome this morning. Take care.

      • Best of luck. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Depok.

        • sending good thoughts. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Thinking of Nagpur.

          • Praying for you, Santhosh. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Take care.
