^ what he said.

Op, many years ago I was basically homeless (if you don't count sleeping in shelters) and from the ground up I went through welfare, put out probably 20 resumes a day, had many interviews and in a week landed a full time job which was much higher than minimum wage.

Right now I'm possibly in a similar situation as the OP in that I have a few months before I may be homeless again (wonderful at manifesting...) but since I have the warning I'm taking the advantage of the extra time.

I'm working on stabilizing my career and getting all my papers and such (taxes, health, etc) in order so that scary day won't even come because I have all the money I'll need, a warm home, and so on.

If it hits you at once THEN you've got a problem but if you have months or even weeks in advance then you're just sitting there like a deer in the headlights...
