Hello I am sorry. You would have to contact the link and call them. I just post information. I am not responsible for what each state has that is the state gov and the reps of the state that make the rules.
Here are work from home jobs and it is hard out there to find work.
What is the cap that Michigan has for heat/lights? It was $350.00 Do you seriously think this is enough to help those without jobs? You could have that in one month! What are the caps now and are they going to go up?
Thank you
In 2006 my mother passed and we were fortunate to have a family member offer a burial plot for her. After a year of her death, we decided on a marker for her and come to find out that the marker was already in place, it was just a matter of adding my mother's name on it. We had plan to bury our father with her, but now the plan has changed. It is going to be 5 years since her death and it's been unfortunate that we were not able to move her nor purchase another plot due to our financial situation. Just a few hours ago, I just found out from my brother that our father does not have much time to live. although he looks healthy, his inside are not do to cancer. We still do not have the means to buy a plot and move our mother before our dad. Although, he has life insurance, it only will cover enough the necessary expenses for his funeral and memorial services and not enough to move our mother. I've met and spoke with the person at the burial place and base on the services, fees (outrageous), burial plot, and to move our mother, it will cost about $10,000. I'm scared that we will not have time before my dad's time to make his wish come true and that is to find a plot and move our mother into it before he goes. If anyone can help and provide resources to orgainzations that will be willing to help, I am greatly thankful. I have never asked for a handout and never thought it would come to this, but I don't know what else to do especially knowing that my dad will soon be with our mother. If anyone can please help, thank you!
My deepest sympathy and condolences to you. I'm in the same situation too my mom died recently, and I cant afford her. Her funeral cost $5,618,or $5,555.00. I'm searching much more cheaper.Please help me! I got proof of her death. She died on monday jan 3, 2011. I'm so stressed out, Please help me.
Can you imagine what it feels like to be a young child and not have your mother to hold you, bathe you, read to you, tuck you in at night?
I'm 65 and I still have my mom and I don't think there is any worse pain than you losing your mom at an early age. That pain can only be equalled by possibly losing your child much too soon.
In either case, your cemetery plot, your burial ground becomes the new home where you loved ones come to see you.
Well, Dee had to leave her children when they were much to young to be going through that type pain, but I take them to see their mom, where they can talk with her and pray over her and they are becoming acclimated to that- but Dee has no headstone. I had to bury her. I don't have the money for a headstone, but Dee and her children deserve to know where to find her in that vast cemetery. SHE NEEDS A HEADSTONE! Someone help me please!

Emergency Services Overview
The State Emergency Relief (SER) Program provides immediate help to individuals and families facing conditions of extreme hardship or for emergencies that threaten health and safety. Through a combination of direct financial assistance and contracts with a network of non-profit organizations such as the Salvation Army and local Community Action Organizations, SER helps low-income households meet emergency needs such as:
* Heat & Utilities * Home Repairs * Relocation Assistance * Home Ownership Services * Burial
The SER program is primarily designed to maintain low-income households who are normally able to meet their needs but occasionally need help when unexpected emergency situations arise. The SER program is not an appropriate solution to ongoing or chronic financial difficulties.
Only local DHS experts should make eligibility determinations for this program due to many variables. Ask for details when turning in a completed application.

The National Cemetery Administration honors veterans with a final resting place and lasting memorials that commemorate their service to our Nation.
The Department of Veterans Affairs’ (VA) National Cemetery Administration maintains 125 national cemeteries in 39 states (and Puerto Rico) as well as 33 soldier’s lots and monument sites.
Burial benefits include a gravesite in any of our open cemeteries with available space, opening and closing of the grave, perpetual care, a Government headstone or marker, a burial flag, and a Presidential Memorial Certificate, at no cost to the family. Some veterans may also be eligible for Burial Allowances. Cremated remains are buried or inurned in national cemeteries in the same manner and with the same honors as casketed remains.
Burial benefits available for eligible spouses and dependents include burial with the veteran, perpetual care of the interment site. The spouse or dependent’s name and date of birth and death will be inscribed on the veteran’s headstone at no cost to the family.
General Program Requirements
Any member of the Armed Forces of the United States who dies while on active duty or any veteran who was discharged under conditions other than dishonorable may be eligible for burial in a National Cemetery.
Certain National Guard and reserve members may also qualify.
Commissioned Officers of the Public Health Service and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration are considered to be active duty members and veterans, once discharged.
Length-of-service requirements apply in some cases.
Generally, in order to receive VA benefits and services the veteran/servicemember's character of discharge or service must be under other than dishonorable conditions (e.g., honorable, under honorable conditions, general). However, individuals receiving undesirable, bad conduct, and other types of dishonorable discharges may qualify for VA benefits depending on a determination made by VA.
Spouses and certain eligible dependents may also be buried in national cemeteries.
Pre-arrangement for burial at a National Cemetery is not allowed.

Hi,
I am so sorry for your loss. May God comfort you during this hurtful time of your life.
The funeral home, no matter how much they want they money, will have to wait-if you don't have it. Don't let them 'stress' you out or 'harrass' you. Even if they sued you, all you have to do is when you go to court-explain the situation to the judge. Show him your bills vs. the money you make. Tell the judge what amount, if any, that you are able to pay.
Again, I am so sorry for your loss.
