Find a landlord and suggest he apply to be approved for section 8 housing. A friend of ours got us to apply to be section 8 landlords to help out a single mother who worked with her.

You need to talk to your land lord about that.  But most of the places I have lived in have been willing to work with me if I was ever late on rent.

dont just sit and wait for someone to help you, ive been in that situation. call your local housing authority for help. they can help you find a place, and will covor alot of costs, until you recover enough to get permanent employment. the government HAS to help you. there are lots of ways to get help for this, and you just took a right step.

Most complexes run one but some don't count medical.If it's a past landlord try to make it right with them.Check your credit and see what is holding you back.You might be able to pay the first 6 mos. or so to get past it.Tell the office up front that you have bad credit and see if they offer advice.Ask if you have a co-signer if it would help.Try a private owner.Ask your current landlord for a reference letter.Call the housing commission in your area.There is usually one place that will help you out but make sure you appreciate it.  Good Luck!

Yes you can.  I'm a soldier at Ft Hood in the same situation.\n\nYou can get housing as long as you don't default on your payment plan.  However, the waiting list is longer for a soldier trying to re-enter housing as he is not considered a high priority.

Section 8 is "Housing Fund"  the Government pays for 20% ot 100% for ur Rent, specially if u are on a fix income like Welfare or Social Security.  U go to the Housing athouirty and ask them on how to apply for Section eight, u have to bring them a paystub, or if ur on welfare a document for the Welfare depart ment

I know your situation too well. This is what you do: First, you findout if the tenants are on section 8, or if the government subsidizes the rent. From what you describe, this is very likely.\n\nThen, you  call the cops each time you notice drug activity, noises, altercations, etc. Get copies of all police reports, and notify your state's agency that covers section 8 assistance. If teh tenants aren't following the state's requirements to live in a subsidized house, they're out, and they may even take the landlord off their list.\n\nGood luck

Go to the housing court in your area and then head to the records room all L&T case records are accessible to the public.  If this is an issue for you, try you local legal aide office, normally located in the housing court as well..Good luck with that...Also I would call the local authorities...like here in New York we have the 311 line to report the atrocities you are currently living under.  Jackie and Marwan sound like slum lords. Oh yeah you can also take them to court for repairs..But make sure you keep paying your rent....lack of repairs doesn't mean you don't pay rent...that is grounds for an eviction...which by your discription would be a step up....and outta there!

Your only choice is to do your time.  Two and a half years isn't that long, get additional training for something when you get out.  Your only other choice is to do something dumb and get out other than Honorable.

You can go to a local welfare office and they can give you information on Section 8 Housing.  Since I don't know the state or town to which you are referring, I can't get any more specific.  \n\nGood luck with your new family. :)

Iam not sure but if you want you can try HUD or Sallie Mae(1888-272-4665) I am not sure if this is the right number for the housing division for Sallie Mae but they should be able to direct you in the right direction.
