I am not your attorney, and I do not have your file in front of me, so I can't give you legal advice.
I'm sorry that you're in such a tough situation. There is a program in New York called the "one shot deal" for emergency assistance. If you have a chance of getting caught up on your payments if the amount in arrears was settled, the city might give you money to pay your back rent. However, the program takes a while to get into, and it is selective. There is a chance that at the end of the process, you might not even get the program. Legally, a tenant has to pay the rent in full on time. Chronic late payment can be grounds for an eviction on the basis of holdover, which means that you would have to leave even if you made full payment by the time you get to court. I wish you all the best.
