You are experiencing financial problems and want to ask your landlord if you can pay your rent late Write a letter to your landlord In your letter explain Why you are writing to him Why you cannot pay the rent When you will pay the rent

Dear John,
I hope this letter finds you well in good health. I am writing to ask you if you could allow me some more time to pay this month's rent because my salary is delayed due to the unavoidable circumstances.
Let me elaborate on my situation, I had been working with Infosoft company for 10 years. Unfortunately, due to business loss, the company has decided to close one of the offices where I worked. Consequently, the salary was delayed and I am not able to pay the rent for this month for the agreed date.
Fortunately, I recently joined a new company with a higher salary and promotion. My salary account is being open in another bank and the process will take around one week. Thus, my wages will be credited in the next few weeks. I hope you empathize with my situation and cooperate with me.
As you are aware, I have been living in your apartment for 5 years and I always make the payment on time. It seems to me that, I will be able to provide you a rent payment prior to the end of this month.
I would really appreciate your support in this matter.
I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours Sincerely,
Deepak Sharma
