I need help paying my rent. I am currently unemployed, and my unemployment won’t be effective until July 2013. If I don’t pay it I can be evicted Friday June 15, 2013. I need help please. I have nowhere to go. I will be completely homeless. I ask for your help and assistance. I am currently looking for a job, and going on multiple interviews. I am so used to working. I just need help immediately. Please.

Re: need help with rent please

I have been out of work for about 3 months now and we’ve been living off of my wife’s SSI check which is just not paying the rent. We are keeping up with most of the other bills but there isn’t enough for the rent. When I get the income tax back we can get caught up on as much as we can. But right now we have an eviction notice which ran out on 6-15-2013. Our landlord is graciously giving us some extra time to get the 3 months that we are behind on paid. We are n a desperate situation. We really need help from someone.

Requesting rental (monetary) assistance to pay our landlord back rent - we owe May 2012 and now June 2012 rent ($400) a month; my husband's unemployment exhausted; I was laid off my part time reporter position at the local newspaper due to a combining of 2 offices and downsized on 5/9/2012. Am now receiving my unemployment benefits but it put us a month behind in paying our rent when I was laid off. It took about a month to start receiving my unemployment benefits. We did apply for food assistance and approved. Our most urgent need is assistance with one month of back rent. ($400). Do not see El Paso ,Texas Salvation Army listed. We have rented at our current address in El Paso 4 years now, is $400 a month for our rent - we want to keep it as it is low rent for us and we are not on any government assistance to pay our rent - can pay it with my unemployment going forward. Our landlord is willing to work with us. If any help can be sent we would want it sent directly to our landlord for our rent payment. We are in our 50's, married, no children at home so OWF will not help us as they only assist when clients are working and if they have small children. Did get us on the PIPPS Plus program to lower our DP&L and Vectren Gas bill when laid off, according to income loss - the back rent is our most urgent need, of $400 to our landlord. Do you have assistance for back rent to help person's laid off work maintain their housing? with rent. Thank you for your help.

So do you have an income? Is just paying for roommate until they got back on feet an option? Have roommate file for unemployment too. That should bring rent funds in the door. As you do those things also explore other assistance programs in Georgia and find other options to call for help.

I am living with a roommate who have unfortunately just lost his job. As of right now we are 2 months behind on rent and really need some assistance. We have tried getting in contact with the salvation army and other agency's but no luck. With limited mobility it is really hard to get the help we need. I would be really grateful if you could provide some information on resources we can use to get some emergency financial assistance in Lawrenceville GA.

For rent and water bills, call a local community action agency for help, grants, or advice. They are a great resource to call. Find a listing of Missouri assistance programs and agencies to call, and select your county/city of Clarksburg from midway down the page.

We have a couple pages of information. This is one that is focused on rent help in Toledo and across Lucas County.
http://needhelppayingbills.com/html/tol ... tance.html

We have another resource that also offers a large number of financial assistance programs across the county. This one has information on utility bills, food, housing, and more.
http://needhelppayingbills.com/html/luc ... rogra.html

Try them both for free advice and help.

That is great that you are getting a second job, trying your best to get ahead and pay your bills, expenses, and take care of yourself and family. If you do need some rent and housing help, try finding information on help in Missouri and find a listing of programs, agencies, and charities to call. Springfield is listed midway down as well for information on financial assistance programs too.

Unfortunately many rental assistance programs in Phoenix will require people to have some type of income. The reason for this is that they do not want to be looked at as charity programs, and people must have the ability to become self-sufficient. Find the Phoenix rent assistance programs and resources. There are options like the Central Phoenix Family Services (call 602-534-1250) as well as the Community Housing Partnership of Phoenix (call 602-253-6905).

Unfortunately I have no other income and my rent is due! I'm looking for a job at the moment but its hard with no money for child care or bus fare. I am in need of help to get on my feet. I think one or two months of money for my rent would be enough, and I can pay it back to whatever program gives it to me.

There are several organizations to call for rent help in Syracuse NY as well as Onondaga County. If you are working and have unexpected medical condition, that will usually help in the application process, as most organizations are not charity programs. Find a listing of the syracuse rent assistance programs and agencies to call. Places like the Catholic Charities of Syracuse 315-475-3807 or the Onondaga County Community Development Division (315) 435-3558 are two of the best options for anyone.

My limitations allow me to work only 6 hours/day every other day. This has put an undue financial strain on me and I cannot afford to keep up with my rent. I would appreciate any information that you can provide me.

If you are faced with separation of your family and children, then some rental and housing programs may exist to help you out. The city of San Francisco, as well as state of California and federal government have programs like the homeless prevention and rapid rehousing. These are options for families, low income, unemployed, etc. More on San Francisco rent assistance programs and services for the lowest income and those with children. For example, the Homeless Prenatal Program focuses on people with children. Dial (415) 546-6756

Re: Rent assistance in Pennsylvania

Post by Admin - Jon McNamara »

Here are places you can call for rent and housing help in Monroe County Pennsylvania. On the main site we also have details on free legal aid, so that way if it turns out you need to go to court at least you can have some legal advice too. Call non-profits in your area like the Stroudsburg and Monroe County Salvation Army at (570) 421-3050, and use the main site, in particiular links on left margin, to find dozens of other assistance programs, legal support, and housing aid.
