need help paying rent

my 22 year old daughter and her 7 month old are being evicted on the 27th. She is very behind on her rent and just found a job a month ago. She missed a weeks worth of work because my son passed away Dec. 30. Is there any help out there at all. the social services wont help and there is no HUD help either. we are desperate.

Me and my husband and our 5 kids live in a 2 bedroom apt with his MOM,under his grandma name, we had a conflict,now she put a 30 day. we might have an apt soon but we don't have enough money to move in so I'm looking for whatever help we can get to pay rent and deposit to move in ASAP

Hi, I need help with rent for november, and am willing to pay it back at $100/month. I just got a job offer and the job starts november 17th. I need about $300 more to pay rent this month, just got a 72 hour eviction notice. I have called a lot of local agencies with no luck... even contacted the DHS office, and unless you currently have TANIF they do not have any emergency funds... why is it easier for people that are already recieving financial help to recieve more, its people that don't live off the system that suffer... anyway... PLEASE contact me if you are in anyway able to help. Me, the wife and kids are finally starting to get our lives back... 541-513-4754

 in response to MIMI57...   you cannot SELL FOODSTAMPS > they come on a debit card these days and federal penalties . now you can buy the food and trade it for money . but if you are raising kids then that is dead wrong of you . they come first . the bitter one has no faith . no prayer . i can tell . i have been there but i am a guy raising a duaghter and i am disabled also . the bitter ones there are jobs for you people who have computers and type and talk . at home . and you can make as much as you want but the least is 4 hours a day 20 hours a week . in your panties if you want . www.nticentral.org

 in response to ...   not true . I am a 54 year old dad and have 5 grandkids and am raising a daughter who is nine since birth . i did it alone and by my self . I am on disability also for now 5 years and have been homeless,lightless cold hungry and hell yes ashamed but you knwo what the first step is ? GET HELP THAT IS THERE FOR THAT PURPOSE . KIDS. they are number one and you will get spit in the face if all you care about is yourself . i promise you . they DO HELP SENIORS> you are wrong lady . you need to call your attorney general and get the help that is there for you and i . all it takes is prayer and motivation to help your kids. now if your a bitter old lady who has no kids then there is still help for you plus if you have internet then you can WORK . I know i said for 4 years i could not work and i was wrong . if you can type and talk then you can work at home and make as much money as you want . i work 4 hours a day in my underware being a telecommunications agent for the irs , i take customer orders for pamplets and irs info and forward them to my employer . i log in and 4 hours later i log out . i get paid every week . It;s ontop of my ssid so i keep my medicare and my ssid payments . so can you .. www.nticentral.org . stop feeling sorry or yourself and leave those kids alone . they made mistakes and there is help for them . they will eventually become independent and put to work thus adding to the pot . you don't get it do you ?

I had to suddenly move back to MN in June, after having moved down to Georgia only in March, because the woman I was living with (and her family) completely screwed me over bigtime and left me with nothing. I had no choice but to move back up here where my family and friends were, but was out of a job for 2 months and now seriously struggling with just surviving right now. I do finally have a job but it's a 45 minute drive to get paid almost minimum wage. I have to pay $500/month for rent and am currently 2 months behind because I haven't had the money to pay it. My phone has been shut off for the past 3 weeks because I can't afford to pay that either, which makes it extremely difficult to be able to possibly get a second job, or get in contact with anyone for emergencies etc. Apparently, my dad had been trying to get hold of me the last few days and hasn't been able to because of my phone being shut off. I have also been pretty much driving illegally lately because I haven't got insurance on my car. But in order for me to get the insurance, I have to change my license plates and my driver's license at the same time and haven't got the money to do any of that. I'm seriously struggling so bad right now. I haven't hardly eaten the last couple days either because I don't have any money to get food. I've been having to borrow money for gas just to get to and from work lately also.

Hi I need money for my rent I have five kids I spand money to buy my kids stub for shcool........thank

HI I NEED HELP WITH MY RENT AND DEPOSIT PLEASE I HAVE 4 KIDS AND ITS SO HARD.

I need help with rent and deposit I have been homless and on the street for a year.I am a woman in my 50's I need help before Oct 1,2011 please!

Need help paying rent and electric this month. Our van broke down and it took all the money we had to fix it in order for my husband to get back.and forth to work. We have 3 kids and a baby due anyday.

I need aid paying my rent. my lease expired and rent went up to 725.00 a month from 650.00. I moved in my current home in June 2010 with a roomate. In february of 2011 my roomate lost his job. Since february I have been paying ALL the bills by myself from rent to electric/water to my internet bill(I work from home). Each month since February i have been slipping more and more into debt supporting both me and my roomate. My roomate then moved out on me one evening in July of 2011 while i was sleep without any notice. He owed me a total of $2,400.00 for covering his part of the bills. Sadly I have not seen or spoken with him since. If I can just get some kind of assistance this month then i KNOW i can get back on track and get my bills paid on time. I have no family to turn to for help and with out this aid I will be homless. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE help with whatever you can.

My husband went to work over 5 weeks ago and we went to pick him up and he was just left he ran with all our money and left everything he owns he has not contacted us and our 7 year old child is scared to even go to school because he is afraid i will leave too. He left me with 2.00 to my name he had had me quit my job 2 weeks prior to leaving saying I needed to stay home with our child. I am short 140 dollars to pay my rent. I have sold everything i own to pay what I could and got financial assistance with the electric bolls and food. I am enrolled in college full time. He had just moved us to new town because he said it would help our relationship so I have no one to help with anything. I cant go to work because i can only work while my son is in school and I cant get daycare free until I get a job. I have falling through cracks it feels and cant get any help with rent. They told me in the town i live i could low income housing but it is a 300 dollar deposit I told them if I had that I could pay the remainder of my rent. I went to doctor last week and got tested for diseases cause I found out the other day he is hiding at a gay mans house. I found out yesterday he gave me HEP-C and Herpes. I don't know what to do its like my life is falling apart no churches in the town will help. I just don't know what to do. I keep going over and over in my head what I did to cause this to happen to me. We loved him with all our heart soul and dont know what to do without him. I know I can never take him back . I have registered with family violence program for counseling because I had to call cops on him multiple time. i am afraid he is just gonna show up in middle of night. The police cant issue restraining order because he is hiding. Does anyone know where I can get help with my rent. I just need 140 dollars . he said he was holding the money so I wouldn't spend it and he ran with away with our money. I know I allowed him to do this to us and I am ashamed and don't even want to leave my apartment. I am keeping mommy face on for my son but its getting harder and harder everyday.

i am a mother of two and my spouse and i have reached hard times. we have applied for assistance which takes about a month unfortunately i am short about $300 on rent and we just ran out f food. i ont know what to do, i havent evn bought school clothes for my kids, do anyone have suggestions because i cant stop crying now

 in response to MIMI57...   its pretty hard to sell food stamps since they are on a card unless someone trades you cash for them. your statement makes me bitter. They probably need the cash more to pay for rent or utilites. I have a one year old daughter and was illegally evicted out of my apartment. Luckily my mom let me back home. Im 22 years old and until now have been on my own since 17 supporting myself. I applied 3 times for temporary assistance and was denied up until recently. They do not give you enough money to live on your own. You should educate yourself before you start bashing jobless mothers. Before I had my daughter I worked over 80 hours a week and because of the economy I lost both of those jobs, not because I missed work or anything. I was receiving unemployment benefits but when I took a part time seasonal job in the winter I did not make enough to reapply. The reason you were denied is likely because you have too many assets. I have had to sell everything I own to become eligible for help. Instead of complaining about us mothers how about you sell your assests so you can become eligible as well.

 in response to niccoop...   I was on the internet trying to find ways to get a loan and saw your post on a chat room on the internet. I'm writing to you in hope you can share and if you got the loan you needed, I greatly appreciate it. I went through family and friends and no one can loan me the money as they are in a bad situation themselves.

 in response to Mom of a Great Girl...   Does anyone have any recommendations for us? I'm the only one working right now my husband just got done going through chemotherapy treatments and can't go back to work yet. We live in an apartment with our 6 year old daughter and our lease was up in April. We have just been in a month to month I only get paid once a month on the 15 th and have already given a post dated rent check for this month now they handed us a 20 no cause eviction notice and we don't have any money for rent or a deposit somewhere else. I don't know what to do I already went to community action council but they can't get me in until Sept 7th and they said they don't have a lot if funding so there is no guarantee they will help and also we have to be out by Aug.31. We don't belong to any church and have no family here to stay with. So if anyone had any ideas please let me know. Thank-you

I am a senior and live here in a senior apartment, I receive ssi but due to lost funds taken from me I am $2100. in back rent with a notice to pay. I would like to enjoy my retirement just a little after working for over 40 years, all my money go to my rent and each day and night wondering how in gods name am I going to pay this back rent before I become homeless.
Thank you.

 in response to faye48...   

I would recommend applying for assistance with both The Salvation Army and Catholic Community Services. There may be other rental assistance programs available in your area, and to find them go online to 211.org or call 211. Some programs require a notice to vacate in order to qualify for assistance, so make sure you have all your papers together before going to any place when applying for help.

 in response to faye48...   I really appreciated that, but i do need help. Do you know someone I can get a loan for just so i can make sure my family will be able to stay in our house.

I need help with rent, m son is in the military and his been in jail. I really need help. I have kids and a grandbaby, since I don't have the money to pay my rent, they don't know we are going to get a 3 day notice. Please someone help me.

 in response to hopelovefaith7...   You're most welcome! That's why I'm here! I appreciate you taking the time to send me a message, as most do not reply, so when I do get a response it makes doing this worth while. If nothing else, my hope is that I can offer some others a little hope :) .. I know things are so tough right now and it's scary for so many, myself included. But, it really does make it easier when you can share your experiences, fears, concerns, etc., with others and have someone else to bounce ideas off of as well - helps when we can vent, get validation for what we are dealing with in our lives and not be judged or criticized. We are most vulnerable and sensitive when we are struggling in our own lives, whether it be financially, physically, mentally, emotionally, etc., and the last thing anyone needs is to be beat up for asking for help and friendship. I really hope things come together for you! Do let me know if I can help further ... or if you just want to talk, I am here for that too!

 in response to CATLUV...   That is so sweet dat u actually take the time to reply to people comments. May God bless you. thank you for being concerned an i know everything will be ok.

I want to start by saying bless your heart for raising those kids. As for the utility and rent assistance, what have you looked into and applied for? Have you applied for any assistance thru the utility company itself? They often have a small one time family grant available, in addition to a discount for services for those with disabilities/seniors/low income. If you haven't already I would also encourage you to apply with LIHEAP. It may take awhile but it will certainly be helpful come winter. The Salvation Army also assists with both rent and utilities, but you have to call and make an appointment at the beginning of the said month. There are a few other ideas and resources you may want to check out on the page i've linked below as well. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me! Blessings to you and your family!

Hi, Are you receiving the disability discount through your utility company? If not, go to the utility company's customer solutions department and apply asap. They also often have additional assistance programs, like a one time family grant. In my area it pays $150. It may not cover everything but it's a start. Also, have you ever applied for LIHEAP? That's another good place to get your foot in the door, especially for the winter time. There are additional places like the Salvation Army and Catholic Community Services which offer utility assistance and rental help as well. The link included below covers all of those resources as well as some additional ones, and there are links to each of the websites as well posted there. With all of that said, what are your medical problems if you don't mind me asking? I am interested simply because I struggle with two auto immune diseases and a spine condition, so I can relate. I too am on SSDI, so if you have any other questions or would like to chat some time and just vent, I am here most every day. I will also include my blog on chronic illness ... you may be interested, maybe not, but thought it was worth a mention. I really hope things begin to look up! Blessings, Cat

P.S. Have you requested a payment plan and extension with your utility company? If you haven't spoken with them regarding your situation it may be of some help. I've been in the same position in the past and was able to call them and arrange a later payment 2 weeks past when the service was going to be shut off. Just a thought :)

Perhaps something on this page will be of help to you ... Finding Financial Assistance and Avoiding Scams. If you have any questions please feel free to send me a message. I am sure you're overwhelmed and scared right now, but keep the faith, as things will fall into place as long as you keep trying. Getting assistance can be tough, but doable .. you just have to be persistent and patient .. easier said than done when it feels like your whole world is falling apart I know. Do you get food assistance and Medicaid? If not, i would suggest applying for both asap. Sounds like it would be helpful to have some sort of health coverage and state assistance would do just that. Plus, once you're in the system you will be eligible for other help like free cell phone and landline. Every little bit counts! Blessings to you and your fiancee, Cat

I had paid my electric bill and they applied it to the deposit of 800 that they charged me for the deposit so that leaves me with a balance 300 on just thart bill alone. They are going to disconnect this sat if it is not paid. Please help me in anyway you can. I would really thank you from the bottom of my heart ,God Bless

I'am disabled recieving social security & was just recently robbed
On the 1st; & I face eviction from my residence; I have a Seizure
Disorder; & badly need to keep my place to live.
I desperately need help as soon as possible my landlord is only
giving me 24 hours to come up with the rent or I must move out.
Please please won't someone help me????

Rent is the most expensive thing to pay for now. If someone could come up with a rental with just a small space for sleeping ala Japanese style cubicles, a common bathroom and common livingroom and kitchen, plus a common laundry room maybe it would be affordable.

I hate asking for help and that's maybe why I'm in this situation in the first place... My name is Angie, I am twenty two years old and have one son. About a four months ago my four year old son was diagnosed with epilepsy. It has been hard on every one especially my ex- husband who after a two week stay with our son and I at the hospital decided that it was to much for him. I bear him no ill will however since he left I have not received any child support or help from him. While I was in the hospital for two weeks with my son I lost my job. I have recently found a job and will start work on Monday 8/1/11 however the fact remains that I was unable to pay for my bills. My landlord has been more than kind to me to let me stay in the house for almost two months rent free but if I do not come up with a months worth of rent by Aug 5th 2011 I will have no choice but to move out... I don't have any place to go and am scare that if I do become homeless that they will take my son away from me because he is on daily medication. My rent is a total of 1000 dollars I will be able to pay my rent after I receive my first two pay check but that wont be until the end of the month so if anyone is able to help please e-mail me at angelicavega2010@yahoo.com Thank you so much
