I lost my leg almost 2 years ago. Was married to an alcoholic. Took a settlement and put it as down payment on condo. After I moved in I lost my job. I got a new job 2 months later but have been barely making my utility bills each month, groceries, car payment, etc. Now I am looking at 20 days I have to move out. No family or friends able to help me and I am looking at moving into a motel, but again I looked at prices and still not able to afford that. I do not have any money in my bank and in fact I had to pay 2 bills that will bounce before my check is deposited on Friday. I am looking for suggestions. I am now down to less than 20 days. I have a job, I have medical, I have a lot of things just not any money for a deposit right now, etc. I do not qualify because of all of these things for help for homelessness, etc. I work at home. This is really my only qualification right now and since I have lost my leg, restaurants will not hire me, grocery stores, etc. Looking for any advice. TY

Even minus a leg, there are many legitimate jobs that you can get at entry level. Have you actually gone into stores looking for jobs? YOu can't make enough money working at home to live on. Thus the position you find yourself in. You can't fix this situation, but you can find a way to make a living--by getting a legitimate job. You may need to live in a homeless shelter until you can build up some savings, horrible, granted, but you are fast going downhill the way you're going. Seek help at the unemployment office which often has jobs available. I assure you that many of these positions will make accommodations for your disability and once you find a job with which you can make a living, you can again get back on your feet.

You can stop the sheriff sale by filing a Chapter 13 bankruptcy. That will just buy you some time. You will have to get an income to stay in the BKCY plan. Get a couple roomates now. Let them pay a deposit and then pay the attorney. Put an ad on www.craigslist.com after you read this.
Time is of the essence.
You are in what's called a non judicial state which means they just put a note on your door not going to court.
God speed to you!
