Dear Sir
I am writing this letter to request you to allow me to pay the rent for march month at the beginning of April due to some financial issues.
As you know I am an international student here in Canada and allow to work only twenty hours per week that are not sufficient for me to manage the fee of courses and my own expenses. I asked my parents to send me money so that I can pay the house rent but unfortunately, my grandfather is admitted to a hospital due to a serious heart attack. so, my parents need money for his treatment. They assured me to transfer money at the end of march.
I will pay my rent at the beginning of next month as soon as I receive currency from my family.
To ensure that I will pay my rent next month, I can give you a signed cheque associated with my bank account. As soon as, I receive the money, I will let you know so that you can deposit the cheque in your account to get my rent.
I will be grateful if you allow me to pay my rent late.
I will wait for your prompt reply.
yours Sincerely
Prrett
