If it was as easy as applying for public assistance at the center do you think there would be thousands homeless people in NYC, and hundreds of thousands of others living in extremely overcrowded conditions?
Btw, applying for assistance with back rent isn't a guaranteed thing. They can still deny you.

If you are on public assistance they do pay your rent...currently the limit is 215 monthly but they have JIGGETTS which will cover the shortfall
so if OP and bro n GF all three apply
that would be half the rent and **** will cover the rest
BTW
the thousands of ppl who are already HOMELESS dont get their rent paid by public assistance because
wait for it THEY ARE HOMELESS
DUHHHH
HRA cant give you an apartment but they will do all they can to PREVENT homelessness if they deny you ask for a fair hearing and correct whatever the reason is they deny you
