Displaced from house fire
Posted: Tue Apr 26, 2022 6:29 am
Hello, Need Help Paying Bills.
I came across your website and reaching out for more information or help. Someone with the State of Georgia Rental Assistance Program told me that I'm ineligible for help even though I have been displaced from a house fire. I've contacted numerous organizations - United Way and Salvation Army are depleted. I've also been playing "phone tag" with the Catholic Charities of Atlanta.
Based on the list below, am I eligible to receive funds for rent and utilities, plus deposits? I'd greatly appreciate any help that I can receive. You can reach me or via a reply here.
• Have separation paperwork from my former employer that advises it was due to the pandemic (permanently laid off July 2020).
• Received UI benefits from the State of Georgia.
• Rented a basement apartment without a lease but have CashApp documentation of my rent payments (until UI benefits were exhausted) and USPS mail sent to me at the address in 30168 zip code. Cobb County in Georgia is no longer accepting applications for rental assistance.
• Since a house fire on 3/16/2022, I've been displaced (have a copy of the fire department report). The American Red Cross paid for a few nights at a hotel. I'm currently staying with a friend for a couple of weeks until I find an apartment.
