Maintenance payments / renting a property

Hi - any advice much appreciated..
I am in a difficult situation. I was studying full time for a degree (and temporarily away from home) when my husband''s solicitor sent me a Petition for divorce and I returned to find he had left with half the furniture etc. Fast forward to now.. I am living in temporary / holiday let accommodation and trying to find work which is proving very difficult.
Having tried to negotiate payments from my husband for 3 months and with no income I am now going down the maintenance pending suit application form A.
My question is... I really need to find a longer term rent (even 6 months would be better than what I am in)and will the maintenance payments satisfy a landlord if I have not managed to get income by then?
Hope to hear - many thanks.

You would have to ask the landlord. It''s up to them.
