to pay the rent and will be leaving, what would the response be?
I you signed a new lease in June, that would put you at the beginning of your lease agreement. Be upfront with your landlord, he has bills and taxes to pay on the property. If you've been living there twelve years, it might take a while to get the apartment to look presentable for a new tenant. Hey, you held it together for twelve years, it was a good run. Don't visit your problems on your landlord.

Wouldn't be a long story just that UC has stopped and I can no longer stay. Real short
So you're planning to move in December? When will you give you landlord notice?
In a previous thread, you mentioned that you weren't paying rent. If that is the case you will be out before December.
I'll help you out here because he has difficulty answering two-part questions. I don't think he's not been paying rent. What he was referring to was that back in May his lease was coming up for renewal and he posted then because he was worried that because he was only getting UC, he couldn't afford a large increase. Of course it was a lengthy thread but it ended up that the increase was only minimal and so far he's been able to cover it.

I don't think his UC has stopped. But it's September and he's not had any job offers at all; his utility bills are doing the summer spike with the A/C he runs all the time; money isn't stretching very far and he's finally seeing the reality of the situation. That doesn't mean that all the job restrictions won't apply until probably December 31st but he's looking for a way around his imminent inability to pay rent.
He's been given all the information he needs about the usual procedure and now it's entirely up to him to either deal with it or wait until the last minute.
This forum tends to be way more drama free than some of the others so hopefully now he's got the information he needs this won't turn into another long drawn out meaninglessly repetitive saga. Is there an icon for "hope springs eternal"?

I would start packing stuff up, and perhaps your brother or another relative can store it. If you are not current with your rent and/or are no longer paying it, they are not going to wait for December. Can you move in with your brother, and is he doing ok financially?
You may have to take your lumps. A lease is a contract and you are bound by the terms of the contract.
Yeah that's what it looks like
