Been years on waiting lists for housing

I am on social security. My income from this is $753 per month. My rent is $780, plus electric, phone, shampoo, toilet paper etc. I have applied for HUD and section 8 as well as tax credit housing. I have borrowed all I can and can't seem to find a homeless prevention plan that I qualify for. Sometimes it is my age (57) other times it is years on waiting lists. I still apply anyway, but don't want to be homeless again! Help!

HUD does have an extensive waiting list. There is no way to get around that. Especially with the low incomes in Kentucky, the demand for section 8 is high. But get your name on the waiting list. It may take years....multiple years. But once you get in you should see the benefits. Read more Kentucky section 8 housing.

Need help paying a bill so I can get DMHA housing and Dayton Ohio. I only need 481 dollars and I could set up a payment plan to pay you back. I do receive a social security income check for my mental health disability.
I have a 9 year old who has special needs and we both have been homeless for about 4 years off and on can somebody please contact me back and let me know if you can assist me and this issue I have before the holidays. I have until January 7th to get this paid or they will take my name off the list for housing and I might have to wait another 4 years.
