I am a single parent who is not orginally from UK but have lived here for almost 6 years now. Up until 2 months ago I was living with a friend but she gave me and my son 4 days to leave. Do to the fact that I am not a UK citizen I can't apply for my local housing association or for housing benefit (I was not expecting it). Due to my becoming homeless I can't afford to fly to my mum so I must stay here. I am currently working two jobs in effort to make enough money to rent a house but I am running into a few issues-When I find suitable properties once I say I have a seven month old child I am told the owners don't rent to people who have children. My question to you is should I try for a houseshare? Any advice you can give will be great. Thank you.
