I am seeking rental assistance for the month of May. Thank u
Please help me. My husband and I are both on a lockdown because of the Covid19. Due to no fault of our own. We do feel like victims. We have never been late before. We can not pay our rent for the month of April. Our rent is past due. 700.00 is what we owe w/,o late fees.
Hello, I am in a bind, I was furloughed from my job on March 17th due to covid-19. I applied for unemployment online of which I was eligible for, but I answered the workers compensation question wrong. I was receiving medical only for a car accident at my previous place of employment, I did not know they meant payments from workers compensation which I do not receive, and now it is sitting in limbo. I can not change the info online, and I can not get through on the phone. I have bills due and can not afford to pay with no income. I still have not received my stimulus check either. I have had no income since March 17th, 2020 and I am in need of help.
I can't get thru to unemployment to pay my rent

I recently moved to Las Vegas and the job that I was supposed to start has delayed the start date. My husband also had a job offer that he was supposed to start on 12/7/20 and they retracted their offer. We are both currently without any income and spent most of our money moving to Nevada with a 1yo. Please help.
