Rent is 5 months past due of which on 2 occasions checks were returned for insufficient funds and 3 payments on credit card were not approved.

You need to talk to the landlord/tenant board as soon as you can! This is a tough one! It's rare that a landlord would let anyone stay as long as he has. But what makes it easier for me to say this, is that he let you stay, and so, he has to go to the courthouse and file the paperwork. Make sure you talk to the board, o.k. Hope this helps, good luck.
