I will check into all those things, Starsky. Thank you.

but you would have socked away $1200/mo for 4-12 months
Correction: I WOULD have been able to save that ... if H didn't just cut his support by $1,300/month. Now, I'll be saving NOTHING. A$shole.
You're going to have to get you and your kids to a place where you can carry a safe, clean, preferably in S7's current school district home or apartment rental -- plus your other monthly expenses -- for $2000 - $2500/mo, yes? (whatever SS + CS you get from your H, plus the net of what you're able to earn after paying for your younger child's daycare expenses)?
As part of any D paperwork, the lawyers will have you each put together monthly income and expense budgets. Even if it's more like $900/mo. instead of $1225/mo. that you can swing for a rental, you can be socking that money away every month by "squatting" in the current home, waiting for the foreclosure process to play itself out and catch up to your husband (and by extension, his "tenants" -- YOU). That's still $10,000 in one year you could squirrel away.
