Question about public assistance

Recommended Posts

I used to work for the food stamp office. Your best bet is to make an appointment and keep it (yes, it means waiting an incredibly long time). You can look up some stuff, and talk to a church agency who can refer you (they're often familiar with what it takes).

But a lot of the programs have some state component, and so you'd be interested mainly in the inputs from someone else in NY. Simply because what's true in Texas doesn't apply.

There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown)

Sick bastard. Thanks for the tip though. :D



Not as sick or uncommon as you think. In some states they are issuing "benefit cards" so there is no paper money. This prevents the recipient an avenue for trading the food stamp money for other items.
