Hello, I am 25 and no longer have a job, my mother has passed away leaving me to take care of my 65yr old father, Ive been looking for work forever to help with bills and was sondering if there was any help for me anon351
my husband just left me and our twins (2 1/2 years). I’m German and in the process for getting my Green Card renewed. The twins are American citizens and I need to know if they can receive welfare. As for now we are staying with my sister in law, b/c we can’t afford our own place. anon364
My boyfriend is in jail and I got laid off of work with 2 kids. Will i be eligible for welfare? Also since he signed the birth certificate does he have to pay the welfare people back when he gets out of jail? anon353
im 19 and i don’t have my g.e.d or my diploma yet. im 2 months pregnant and im on wic and i will soon be getting my owm food stamps. i heard that in order to get cash assitance from welfare that i have to put the baby’s father on child support, is this true or can i still get it? anon349
I am 18 years old and being evicted from my house soon
OK to the woman who is 29 years old with 2 kids and is dumping on teenager parents should shut it about not bein able to support a kid without help. Im 16 years old and my daughter is almost 1 im not on welfare and im gettin by pretty damn fine without it. i have a job im a full time student and i take care of my child ALONE and im not complaining. Also to the ones who are on welfare: don’t let people dump on you about it if you need help, you need help. at least you didn’t choose to end a babys life to benefit yourself. keep doing what you’re doing because even if you need help now. your child will still thank you in the end for taking care of him however you could.

College has always been my dream and I am planning on attending a community college full time. *I do not have enough* money to live while going to college or rent out an apartment. Is there any way I could apply for welfare?
i’m a single mother to be. i just found out that i am pregnant and already 26 weeks along. i have no 
idea who the father could be because i was being dumb up until a few weeks ago. i was wondering if i would be able to receive welfare. mssmisty yesterday
Mss misty – truthful or not, i’m 26 years old and i honestly don’t believe that i’m too young to have a child. no one is ever truly ready for kids, but this baby was planned, i don’t consider my pregnancy a mistake, and i didn’t accept your comment because i don’t need negativity; that part of my life is over.. i have more important things to worry about right now and i’m not planning to live in a camper forever, i will not make my child suffer if people can’t be excited for me i would rather they just keep it to themselves. and another thing i’ve worked hard for years! so now that i may need state aid. why shouldn’t i be entitled to it. i do help contribute to it.
