I am possibly facing eviction with a court date on the 23rd for back rent. I went to welfare with help but they said that I don’t qualify for rental assistance because based on my income, I won’t be able to afford rent on my own. I was trying to go through this without the help of my child’s father who actually live with me and 2 kids. What if I submitted my child’s paystubs also to welfare would they then help since I would then be qualified? What would they say if I bring him up? I’m assuming welfare is just to help single moms. I’m in jersey city
