My electric is $268 and will be shut off after Tuesday if it’s not paid by Tuesday at 5:00 central time. My rent is $500 and was due April 1st and they are talking about evicting me if it’s not paid soon. I do not have a job at this time because I was in a car wreck and am waiting for back surgery and can work at this time. I am trying to get disability but it’s just not going very fast and I am not able to make it. I plan on moving at the end of next month with family so I will not have to worry about bills until I am able to work again or I get disability but I cannot move until then. If you are able to help me in any way please let me know ASAP. I have tried to get help from my family but they are struggling as well and just can't help me. I live in Columbia Missouri. I look forward to your response.

I desperately need any information or help you can give me and obtaining any kind of state, local or government rental assistance as there is no kind of assistance programs in my county of residence, or so is stated. I have been struggling for the last year trying to obtain some kind of assistance. Unfortunately due to my chronic medical condition (lupus, etc) I am physically unable to continue this search for some kind of assistance. Thank you very much.

I have been out of work since December 2012 due to numerous health issues. I am in the process of applying for Social Security Disability but have been initially turned down so I have to appeal. I have no doubts I will be awarded benefits however the process is long and complex. I’m 52 and live alone and have no one to turn to. My Landlady had been understanding as I have lived here for 6 years however I haven't been able to pay anything since July 2013 and desperately need help. Is there any help out there that can make payment to my Landlady in Vermont until my disability is approved? Thank You.

I am currently paying 400.00 a week to house my family in a hotel and am desperately seeking a residence. A local realtor directed me to you, I am told there may be rental assistance programs you can direct me to. I am employed full time and am just having a hard time with saving for a deposit when I am paying so much per week to house our family of 5, one of whom is disabled. Any help or leads would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to read this.

Hi, We have information on many rental assistance programs, vouchers, and HUD resources for the disabled. Now some may not help with a deposit (that is less common) but you can try them. Since you have a full time job, and also 5 kids, that should also assist on your application. For more details, read the resources here. http://www.needhelppayingbills.com/html ... tance.html

I live in Saint Petersburg, FL 33705.
I reside at the, Banyan Tree Project, which is an alcohol & drug rehabilitation center. I have been a resident / client for 25 months now but am leaving and need money for the rent as I apply for disability with a law firm. I get my health care from the county health & I see a counselor at Suncoast mental health.
I have a disability lawyer and have started the appeal process. Now I have been notified it may take another 18 months for a hearing.
I need assistance with rent, I have been allowed to stay here more than my allowed time already. I don't know if I could be allowed anymore time here.
I am 28 months sober and I am comfortable with my life finally. I just need a little more time.
Any reply would be appreciated, thank you.
