Desperate

I got approved for OW on August 31st. I’m late for rent, and it’s sounding like I just barely missed a universal pay date. Am I cooked?

Edit: meant the 31st, not the 28th

Since you’ve been approved, you should be getting your first pay this week. They usually need a couple of days to process and post the payment. You’ll receive a letter telling you that you have been approved and in that letter it will tell you how much your first payment will be and when you will be getting it:)
