My roommate (there's four of us, counting her) has requested that I move out despite it being in the middle of the holidays, I'm also disabled and have never been late on my rent. However, one of our other roommate's constantly has excuses on being late with his share and also can't keep a job. Due to her Brother's family falling on hard times, they have also been staying with us and can never afford to leave by their deadline. Her reason, so she says, is because she wants her Nephews to have their own room. The living room area was turned into their bedroom about a year and half ago. She's aware of my disabilities, that I receive far less a month than anyone earns in this home and I can't move without financial help. She did give me an oral eviction a few days ago. I have no problem with moving out, but the government employee that I spoke with says that assistance will highly be unlikely within 30 days. I was also made aware that because we have no type of lease, I'm considered a month to month tenant under Georgia law and must be given 60 days to relocate. After attempting to talk with my roommate about this, she got very hateful and said that I'm only considered a border, so I may have even less than initially given. My question is this, what exactly does the state of Georgia determine to be the difference between a month to month tenant vs a border/lodger? I have researched myself crazy trying to find this answer and what my true rights are! Thank you
