Oh ok. I just hope that's really the reason and I still get the chance of getting an apartment. I just don't want them to not look at my case and not get the chance to qualify.

Well since my interview was in January, I'm assuming I won't know until March or April. My problem is I'm traveling for 15days in March so I'm honestly hoping that I hear something before then which I probably won't. I'll just have to pay extra for the roaming to see if they contact me.

I was called back in November about an interview but I didn't take it because it was farther from work and I had only put myself and not my mother down. Earlier this month my mother suddenly passed away and now my situation changed. I sent them an email a few weeks ago asking if it was too late and yesterday I got a letter for an interview in two weeks. I have community preference and I'm a city employee so I hope I get it. Problem is, my current apartment wasn't in my name or the bills. And my credit is points away from the minimum. I hope they could work with me because without this place, I'll probably end up homeless in a couple of months


Hey try to build your credit up within the next 2 months. That's what I've been doing my score isn't the best but I've been paying a bill since they called me for an interview and my score has went up by 10 points and that's within 3 weeks so my advice is try your best to build your score up. Even if that means paying $25 or $50 a week on your current bills or whatever has your score low. That's what I'm doing and it's working.

I honestly didn't think that late payment Would affect.. Because I have a few late payments especially on student loans.. But I'm confused as to why management has your application. Did you ask them what was the next step..

My suggestion is call and ask to speak to a lady name Angela. Explain your situation and ask her what she advises.. She helped me a lot!
