Help us keep our home, pay bills and get on with our lives!

Hi, my name is Mia, i am a single mum of 3 handsome boys, or young men if you'd like, the youngest still living with me. As of May last year I was declared 100% disabled.

This is as far outside my comfortzone as it gets, but I really dont know any other way to get out of the quagmire i am stuck in. I dont even know where to start, its a long and complicated story.. But here it goes.. Sorry, in advance, for the long post.

Half my life I was a farmers wife, 22 years, the last 10 of them as a selfemployed farmer at my in-laws' farm. At the same time i was running the farm my husband and I bought togheter in 2011.

Early spring 2022 our separation was as fact, my son and I moved from the farm the same year, because there was no other option. The divorce followed September the next year (2023). Its been a really hard time trying to get my husband to agree on a settlement, he has not even put in an effort to try come to an agreement. I have tried every angle i know of, even hired a lawyer.

When the lawyer had finally gotten a grasp of things, the world exploded and the ground beneath our feet started to slide.

I got a call from the tax office, I owed the government taxes, and had to pay within a fortnight. 485 000 NOK excl interest, total of 640 000 NOK as of today. Money i didnt have because all I made running the farm, went back to the in-laws' farm and the farm me and my husband owned togheter. Paying loans, upkeep and bills. Legally the business was in my name, so I was personally responsible for everything related to the business. I had to pay, the end of the story, I have a 30% deduction from my disabillity pension, even tho the tax actually is directly related to the farming. On top of that I pay regular tax of 26%, leaving me with 44% of my disabillity pension. Which actually leaves me with almost nothing.

The only thing that kept me (us) floating was childsupport and an understanding landlord. Unfortunately Christmas came early last year, with sudden stop in childsupport and a landlord that was not so understanding anymore.

My lawyer dont want to handle the settlement anylonger, because the company is scared I will not be able to pay.. so no settlement then..

I am behind on several payments, bills keep coming which i cant pay, i am 2,5 months behind with rent (9000 NOK every month), bills related to the farming is suddenly apparing (they have probably gone to my old address, and then in the garbage). I am supposed to start paying my studentloan, but there is no more money. I cant pay my medicalbills, i have to choose which medications to buy each month to make sure I have the ones that keeps me alive at all times. Now we are in danger of being evicted from the house we live in due to the missing rent payment.

I have had my application for social security rejected, so has my son. We dont have any other family that can help in any way.

My son has suffered trauma early in elemtary school and therefor has not completed primary school. He has finally found a way and a school that works for him, but still need the stability and predictability he get living with me.

I know its a large sum i have put up, and i dont know how it will be distribute exactly atm. I dont even know if it will cover everything, but i know it is a start. If I can get ajour with my rent, we can stay in our home. If I can pay my taxes, i can rehire my lawyer and be done with the settlement. Hopefully i can pay some of the other bills that are left, but atleast i will get my disabillity pension back and get on with my life.

Every cent counts, so plz if you have anything to spare.. show us some kindness

Thank you in advance.

Humble Regards Mia
