Shalom everyone, I am a jew who is really really bad when reading Hebrew and also I don't have a lot of wealth. I would like to have a PDF Orthodox (chassidic) siddur, with English transliteration. I have no minyan or places to daven near me so I have to pray alone.

Unfortunately, I do not know of any free transliterations. The main ones that I know of are Metzuda or Art Scroll which can be purchased at an number of locations.– sabbahillelCommented Jul 9, 2017 at 23:13

Does it have to be a PDF? I don't know of any transliterated siddurim off-hand, but there are plenty of digital siddurim in the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store, so you may find something better there. Also, I added the [english] tag to your question, because I assumed that was the transliteration you wanted.– MTLCommented Jul 10, 2017 at 0:51

this doesn't have everything, but is online, free and transliterated kakatuv.com/orthodox.html– rosendsCommented Jul 10, 2017 at 0:58

@sabbahillel - And even the ArtScroll ones only come in Nusach Ashkenaz.– ezraCommented Jul 10, 2017 at 1:53

2Remember that praying in your native language is permissible as well. You might consider davening in English until you can become better at reading the Hebrew.– ezraCommented Jul 10, 2017 at 2:04

Hebrewbooks has the modern print of the Tehillas Hashem (Chabad) siddur. This siddur has transliterated certain sections of the prayer services, starting from this page. The transliteration of Kaddish and Kedushah on the relevant pages; for example, the Mourner's Kaddish here.

That's what I was searching for. Thank you and blessings. Commented Jul 10, 2017 at 9:55
I am currently working on a transliterated Chabad siddur. So far I have the Morning Blessings up until the Akedah. You can see my progress here.
The transliteration is in Sefardi / Modern Israeli Hebrew pronunciation.
Edit:
The section for the Tefillat HaShachar is complete, from Modeh Ani to the beginning of the Korbanot! You can see it here.
I will be working on the Weekday Shacharit and the Korbanot next. The way the Dropbox file formats the text is a bit strange, but if you put the whole thing into Google Docs or such it's much better.
