Why is that not all peoples who should food stamps can't get them? it's not fair.
Can you give an example of "peoples who should food stamps can't get them"?
To qualify for food stamps you need to make under a certain amount. I don't know where you live of what the qualifications are for your state, so I can only assume that if someone is denied food stamps, they most likely make too much money or I believe they wouldn't qualify if they had no physical address. If you know someone who needs food, have them check out the salvation army and the local soup kitchens.
I am talking about somebody on S.S.I. and they don't $600.00 a month. The husband want and don't work. This is just an examlpe. ok. Cool. Now what do you have to say about this come back? Hola back. I am talking about VA area of the mean world.
How about we agree that not everybody that posts here is totally spiffy with their English.
Certainly we have people from all over the world including Texas trying to get their message across the best they can.
Let's overlook the spelling and grammar and concentrate on the gist of the post.
That's not English. Type your question clearly and you will probably get an answer. For instance; what does "S.S.I. and they don't $600.00 a month?" mean? What do you mean by the "husband want and don't work"? And lastly, what is the "VA area of the mean world"? I'm not trying to be smart, Panz... I really don't understand what's being asked.
OK YES I AM HAVING A REALLY TIME. MYSELF. I AM ON SSI MEANING THAT I AM ON DISABILTY AND I CAN'T WORK BUT YET I CAN'T FOOD STAMPS OR MEDICADE. I CANT GET ANYTHING THAT I AM INTILTED TO.
IT MEANS JUST WHAT IT SAID HE TO DARN SORRY TO WORK OR EVEN GET OUT OF THE BED BUT JUST TO SMOKE, GET OUT OF THE BED. I GET LESS THEN $600.00 A MONTH. AS FOR YOU TRYING TO BE A BIG THING READ WHAT I SAY AND YOU WILL KNOW WHAT I AM SAYING. ALL HE DO IS EAT AND SMOKE. AND YES I AM NOT GOING TO STAY WITH HIM MUCH LONGER. BYE
Fine Bill but this poster is clearly struggling with their computer and their English. A little compassion is all I asked for and Montana seemed able to provide a helpful answer, didn't she?
Death Row, you have access to a computer and more answers than we can give.
Bill
SSI is Social Security. The $600 is what they make a month. I think they mean that the husband won't work, althought I agree that it's hard to understand.

You will not get responses by using all capital letters. In the internet world, that is considered yelling.
Now, back to your problem. I am surprised that you are not entitled to food stamps, as I know people who are on a disability who recieve food stamps and medical as well. It must have something to do with the state that you're in. Have you been to your local welfare office to try to get help from them?
Death Row
From what I understand, you have a dead beat husband on you hands, which is probably why you don't qualify for food stamps and medical. The way the system looks at it, is that you are living with someone who is able to work and help provide, so it sounds like it's the dead beat who is the problem.
I hope you do rid of him. You don't need that.
Good luck to you.
Okay. So you receive Social Security Disability benefits of $600 per month... for him(?)... he can't work and you are being told you don't qualify for Food Stamps. Did they say why not? Is this because your income disqualifies you?
Ps: Panz, you,ve misread my intent. You'll notice I generally only pick on peers... Hell, I'm the anti-bully.
Bill
From what I understand, she is the one who is on the disability and the he (her husband, I assume) is a dead beat that refuses to work.
NOT IT'S FOR ME NOT HIM! I DON'T GET THAT MUCH A MONTH I GET $564.00 A MONTH AND I HAVE A CHILD TO SUPPORT AND THEN I HAVE BILLS AND SUCH. YES THEY TOLD I CAN'T GET THEM BECAUSE HE WANT GIVE ME THE INFO. ON HIM. OK
I'm hurt Dawg, I thought you were picking on me as a peer...lol.
Dang I hate losing posters because of silly misunderstandings
Oh no I am not picking on you at all. I don't know you like that. We still friends right?
SSI- Supplemental Security Income is not Social security, it is a federal (not state) program for people who have not earned enough income to qualify for social security benefits due to an incapacity to earn a living.
SSDI is Social Security Disability Insurance for those who have earned social security benefits and are currently disabiled.
Food Stanps is a Federal (not state) program offered by the Depart Of Agriculture for low income individuals.
all of the above have different criteria for eligibility, hope this helps.

Then the only thing you can do is to get rid of him. If he doesn't have an income and is holding you back from recieving benifits you're entitled to, show the bum the door. As you said, you have a child to support and you are taking from that child by letting this dead beat suck off of you. Ditch him!
