Wednesday on my day off, went to Brooklyn early in the morning (left at 7am) to go take care of some business—something that will come in handy if and when we finally move into the new apartment.
I got back home at about 12pm, so I decided to get some quiet rest before the kids came back from school. It was my intention to call HRA and harass them as to why CityFHEPS application had not been processed yet, but I was kinda tired after that commute to Brooklyn, so I decided to take a nap instead. It was supposed to a one-hour power nap, but I ended up waking up at 3 pm—my old a$$😂
I left at about 4pm to go get some fresh air and call HRA while I was out there. I even thought about visiting the local HRA office to ask about CityFHEPS. For some reason, however, something held me back on this Wednesday. I ended up not calling or visiting the local HRA office.
I got back home at about 8:30 pm and when I checked my HRA app, BAM, there it was. A notice that my CityFHEPS application had been approved, and on the notice letter, a breakdown of how things are going to play out.😳Basically the city will pay my November rent, and I start to pay my portion of the rent on 12/01—basically a done deal, or so I think.
So God-willing we should be in the apartment before 12/01. There is some $$ for furniture that I’m supposed to get before my move but I’m not sure when that will come in. It typically comes BEFORE somebody moves out, but remember, you’re dealing with a targeted individual here so HRA may “forger” to send the furniture money, or send it in July 2026.🙄😂
Anyway, we’ll see how things play out but at the moment, it looks like moving to the apartment is imminent—highly likely before December. 🙏🙏
