You should talk to your landlord explain you have both been giving ur mil $400 a month for rent and utilities. Therefore now you will directly paying him $800 a month until you are fully caught up. As for the mil don’t help her out anymore in the future. Your favors are all done .

Not sure where you live, but we have a business called Community Action Commission that has different programs to help pay bills. Since the pandemic, they now have rental assistance. Try calling your welfare office and asking about the different programs in your area. If they have something the same, then you should be able to get help thru them

There is a national eviction moratorium at the moment. Evictions cannot occur until after 10/3, which keeps folks safely housed until that time. They can threaten it, but landlords cannot move forward with evictions for non-payment if rent.

Moving forward, I would pay landlord directly.

Contact local social service agencies to start process of getting assistance.

Lots of good advice on resources here. You can also call your Legal Aid Society. They will be up to date on all the eviction laws in your area and can help you address the landlord. They should also be able to connect you with social service organizations that can help with the utilities, food, day care, etc. What you’re going through isn’t easy. One step at a time.

So what is she spending the money on? Do you have housing dept you can go to or a friend to help you out. I’ve been homeless 3 times and something always works out x
I don’t think he can legally kick you out at the moment. Talk to him and explain the situation, pay him the $300 and work something out where he can get his money within the next couple months. Keep mil away as she is toxic as hell.
So not only has the mother in law used all their money that was for rent & bills on other stuff, when the landlord comes knocking she then packs her stuff and is scarpering
To a friends!?
What a total piece of $$$$. She is!!
Tbh it’s not their name on lease so not there prob explain the situation to land lord. Hopefully he ain’t a idiot and realises it’s not THEIR fault.
Go to housing and explain to them too u have 4 kids so they should help ASAP.
M.il needs a kick up the ass to do that to son and her grandkids Karma love karma
There are plenty of services out here to help you, ESPECIALLY, with kids. Contact social services, im sure you are receiving food stamps. The majority of people need help during these times so asking for help thru cash app might not be a good idea. The landlord has to take the renter to court first before they evict you and that will take months. Just start making plans now, don’t wait. God bless 
$450 rent! Who still has rent that low with enough room for everyone? She needs to give him every cent she has and beg him cause she had no clue.

It’s not your problem! If you can afford your own place which clearly you can then I’d be leaving, you MIL has been pocketing your money, it’s her problem not yours so leave her to sort it out! You stated you agreed to move in to help HER, so what was your living situation prior to that? I’m sure there would be some help you could receive without asking random strangers for money! I’d be asking what your MIL did with the money you were giving her? Plus from this point on do not give her another penny, you pay the rent, bills etc directly, do not let her pay them as she clearly can’t be trusted! Personally I’d be packing my bags, packing up my kids and leaving the partner and his mother to deal with the mess!
Could you try and speak to the landlord and explain the situation to him and make an agreement to pay extra in the following months to pay back the money owed?
Have a sit down with the landlord. Tell him everything. If he’s a good landlord and your promise to pay like a extra 100 a month till it’s caught up. And remove the mom off and put your names down. It’s easier to keep a tenant then it is to find a new one.most electric companies can put you on a 6 month installation.

Can’t kick you out without an eviction notice and they gotta go through court to get that. Talk with the landlord and explain to him the situation. He is mad now, but it’s also his fault for only taking partial rent for 6 months. You can go to DSS for emergency assistance, they will help you. You should be getting the child tax credit for the 4 children this week as well.

I’ve been there girl ,I remember paying a couple months rent with my taxes so I would have time to collect more money yo pay of the rest of the months of the year .it’s a struggle .I would suggest giving the landlord the $300 now and talking to him to let him give you at least till the end of the month to make the rest and a little extra to prove it wasn’t you guys and it was you’re mother in law.I would hustle with fb market and sell stuff in you’re house .clothes ,kitchen items ,kids stuff they no longer need ,etc …If that’s not enough ,ask someone close if they are looking to rent a room ,I know so many ppl that can’t afford to live on their own so they would be willing to rent room ,ask they to pay up front to help Pay off rest ,I wish you the best of luck ,praying for a fast solution for you And you’re family

They can’t kick you out the eviction memorandum has been extended. See If you qualify for one of the grants out there due to coivd. Apply for one. It goes straight to the landlord. So it will not go to your mother inlaw. I wouldn’t give her anymore money. I would pay it straight to the landlord.

Feel free to message me, I would love to talk to you and help out anyway I can. Ignore anyone placing judgment and questioning you about your children, when you had them or how close together you had them. You own no one any explanation on your life and when you had children. It sounds like you and your S/O are wonderful parents who have worked hard to provide for your babies just to have someone who you should have been able to trust totally take advantage of you. I’m sorry you’re going through such hard times. I too was a young Mom and I wouldn’t change a thing, my boy is 17 years old in 2 days and is such a blessing in my life. I had him when i was 17. He showed me just how strong and determined I was to build a beautiful life for us.

If you have any proof or messages about the rent agreement, please show the landlord and try to work something out with him! I agree with whomever said to ask about taking over the lease and kicking her to the curb. I can help with a little cash tomorrow. Won’t be much, but if I can get a cash tag I’d be happy to send what I can for you. Better days are coming. Stand tall and firm through this speed bump.
Do you have a Latter Day church around you? They will help you if you go in there with proof saying you are about to be kicked out

No. No no no. Forget what is owed and move somewhere else. You’ve dedicated almost a year and you’ve been taken advantage of for more than half of the time you were there. You’re hurting yourself and are now worse off than when you went there. Unless people give you the money, to stay you won’t come up with it in such a short time. You are better off going into a homeless shelter, since you both work you can save and get your own place quickly, and you won’t be robbed, and screwed while you are there. Walk away from her, and let her deal with it, and she needs to pay you back every penny she has stolen from you.

They can’t evict you that fast… You have the law on your side, and COVID has made it damn near impossible to evict at all let alone within a week. If you haven’t been served one at all and just his threats, that’s because he knows he can’t evict and is hoping you would be naive enough to believe it
Sell all of her shit if it’s worth anything and yes…stay the fu@# away from her. She is toxic
Hey hun! Don’t listen to these haters. You tried to help out his mom and it didn’t work out. Lesson learned. Keep pushing and worry about you and those babies you have! You’ll get through this.
