Food Stamps eligibility requires you HAVE A JOB, yes you read that right.... | |
Treasures User ID: 1169761 United States 11/30/2010 06:56 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | You DO NOT need a job. If you are not working, yes, you will be put in a work search program. But all of the staff within the Div of Labor know that there is a high % unemployment. They realize it probably is a fruitless endeavor, but the feds have not waived that requirement. We still have to engage them in a work search activity. edit to add: yes there is a "school rule"---if you are over 18 and enrolled in a institution of higher learning there are some requirements. It depends on each persons situation but for a blanket statement without getting into each nitty gritty exemption----if you are carrying 12 credit hrs (full time enrollment) you must be working 20hrs per week or you MAY not be eligible. For those on unemployment ---you are exempted from the work search activity--- because the Div of Labor is going to make you do a job search once every 4 weeks and we're not going to penalize twice. Once your benefits are exhausted, if you are still receiving food stamp benefits, you will then be enrolled in our work search program. I get so angry at posts like this GRRRRRRRRR. DO NOT try and deter people from applying for benefits!!!! Each situation is different and you may very well be eligible for benefits. It doesn't hurt to apply!

I can see where a lot of 2 and 3 bdrm places are suddenly going to explode into 4 and 6 bedroom places if everybody eligible needs their 'own bedroom'. In Alberta that would net you $3600/mo for 6 people sharing one house. I could do that. The bread lines of the '30's depression looked like a good place to lean how to become a chess-master.

Call your local social services office and apply. Let a professional assess your individual situation and explain things to you. APPLY, APPLY, APPLY ~~~~!!!!!

I know 2 people right now without jobs that collect food stamps. there is no job required. It IS actually one of the requirements. No it isn't a requirement. Get your facts straight. It took 3 1/2 months for my husband to get unemployment benefits. We got food stamps while waiting. When he got his UE, it put us a few dollars over the income limit, literally less than $10 over the limit. Then we lost food stamps. The real shame here are the employers paying less than low income wages because they know that the government will pick up the difference with food stamps. But hey, those profits keep ticking up.
