I have been working thru the pandemic and hadn't used unemployment benefits.
Now, as of August 1st, I'm no longer working. My unemployment is $304 per week. I will lose my house if I don't get additional help.
Is there any programs that would help me financially?

I would recommend getting with your State's veteran office. A lot of these programs are not maintained at a federal level. You should also get with your local veteran associations. They usually have advocates that can help or at least point you in the right direction.

Yes, and some options have already been addressed. But also look beyond veteran program to regular (civilian) social programs like SNAP or work placemwnt programs.

A1C R. Nec. Yes. The above program is based on financial need. Disability is based on physical and/or mental limitation.
