WIC income guidelines

I should have gotten on it earlier. I thought I would be able to get a job quickly like my last two ugh. I’m assuming it’s easy if I’m not married but I was going to use my daughter’s insurance card for proof of identification and she’s on his insurance

A lot of benefits depend on how you file taxes. I'm not married and claim my daughter while I stay home with her. Her father covers our housing costs. That's how my daughter and I have medi-cal, calfresh, and WIC. I think it should be ok that she is on his insurance but I'm not sure what documents they might ask for as "proof" of no income. For calfresh I just had to show a screenshot of my unemployment ending and that was good enough.

In addition to WIC, if you claim her and her father does not I recommend getting calfresh as well! It's been unbelievably helpful. The process to get it sucks but once you have it it's great. I wish you luck!

I dont lie. I’m just that poor! We legitimately qualify for Medical, Cal Works, WIC, and CalFresh. Thank god bc I have twins.

I also dont work right bow and get wic you have to make something according to them so i told them i get $100 from my family claim me and my daughter and dont mention my bf also we are together and live together but he makes to much so i just say we live separately and are co parenting and apply for ebt i used ti hate on it so muuch but $530 for me and my daughter a month fills our fridge now idk what i would do without it😂

I claimed the baby, and I'm not married, but my partner makes a lot of money. I was on WIC and Calfresh for a few months before getting a job. To me, if I'm not married, then there is nothing holding a man back from kicking me and the baby out, so I'd be on my own. Therefore, I made sure we were covered with those benefits and medi-cal cuz I almost did leave the relationship at one point.

If they catch you lying about your income they will take away all benefits. Also, no people are not lying. They actually make that and need the WIC help especially single mothers. If you’re partner makes 85k a year that’s A LOT. You could try snap but you prob wouldn’t qualify for that either with him making that much. We are on SNAP and I could probably qualify for WIC. We’re slowly getting our debt down which is great

WIC is not different from public assistance and it was not created by a gang. It was created by our legislation with the help of a doctor for the nutritional aspect. I think you’re referring to the black panthers starting free meals for children in the last 60s. A lot of people actually believe they started wic. the government wouldn’t have taken over a gang affiliation like that.

I’ve got about 5 links that say they did not. Doesn’t mean I’m going to tell you that you look stupid. Just stating facts. It was not created by them. WIC has nothing to do with it. Read your own link. They’re the reason the free breakfast program exists in schools you fucking twit.

eww just checking my notifications and saw that she called the Black Panther Party a gang.

My husband claimed the baby on taxes so I seriously doubt I would be able to get any assistance.
