When my hours were cut in half in July, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Wednesday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $4,150. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by October, we must leave. I've 3 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 $4,150 goes: • Rent arrears (4 months): $3,150 • Late fees and court costs: $180 • Utilities in arrears: $210 • First month of rent as a buffer: $610 Thanks for being kind about this. - Vishal

      Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Vishal.

      • Vishal PrajapatiOwnerAnswerPhoto verified

        It's all in the list in the story. rent arrears (4 months) is the big one at $3,150, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Good question.

    • Victor Segun Mba

          You're not alone. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I'm in engineering myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. God bless.

              Hang in there. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best.

                Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Wish I lived closer to Kingston so I could bring a meal. Love from Scranton.

                  a secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. I'll check back for the next update. Greetings from Shinjuku
