Question about how to get food stamps, any welfare workers out there? Im a broke college student in need! Thx?


Im a 27 yr old, full time college student who recieved a Pell Grant for financial aid for school. Im not employed, I go to school full time during the mornings/days, so finding an evening job to coordinate w/ my school schedule in my area is hard. Im moving in with my boyfriend in Oct & his name is on our apartment lease & he will be paying the rent & bills. I was wondering if I could get food stamps & some sort of assistance? What is the process of this? Would I need to file for unemployment first? Any information is appreciated as Im a broke college student just trying to survive, thanks.

You have to be working 20 hours per week unless you get approved for federal work study (it could be for 1 hour for work study), are disabled, receiving AFDC (cash aid), be sent to school by JTPA or FSET or another similar program in which attending school is a requirement. or have a child under 6 (under 12 if you are a single parent). This applies to anyone attending school at least half time and is between 18 and 49.

I'm in college and I have been receiving food stamps and book assistance for a year and a half. You won't be able to receive any benefits without a job though. You have to work 20 hours a week. I know you can also have a work-study job and I'm pretty sure the requirement for that is only 10 hours a week. So unless you get a job, you're out of luck with assistance from them. If you do have any questions, just look up your county's assistance office, and either call or go down to see them.

Well you cant get welfare because you have no children. However you can get food stamps, but usually just for a very limited time. If you previously had a job you can apply for unemployment.

Dude you may be out of luck! If you are not disabled,single parent with small child you may not get any food stamps!

That program is for people with children and old people. Don't mooch off the man. Get a job on campus or something.
