I am a veteran who is very close to losing his home. I have been unemployed since January 08. I was receiving?

Would the GI Bill be an option for you? Or the VA Voc.Reh.?

You could work on your education and at the same time receive a housing allowance. Clearly, it will take a few weeks and months to get everything running, but it could be a worth a try for the future.

Contact the VA for assistance. It will be minimal, but even a well-placed letter to the lender could help.

My company could only help with debt reduction. You are not in need of this, from your question. However, I would like to recommend that you contact the lender directly. Even in person, if practical.

If you are upside down on your home loan, you will not be able to get a respectable loan to tide you over.

Have you considered self-employment for a short period? As an example, cleaning the washer and dryer of clients prior to cleaning out the lint-laden exhaust vent of the dryer? Your local fire department can let you know why it is important to do so.

Heck, if I wanted to open an office in Pennsylvania (especially near West Brownsville where I spent part of my youth), I would willingly offer a position to you. My guess is that you are looking in the wrong places. With a family of four, you appear to be running out of options.

Think, young man, think. What can you do to differentiate yourself from others seeking employment?

In fact, why not establish your own business?

I am truly sorry for you. Chk with your local gov. Normally they provide aid for unemployed / veterans. There are lots of other international orgs. like Red Cross, certain wings of UNO which can help you.

I am sure this stage would pass fast & you will return back to normalcy
