@therealveronika_: True story: when I was 18, I moved back to Pennsylvania from Florida. While I applied for jobs and waited for a call back, I applied for public assistance to hold me over- I was asked if I had kids, was on drugs, or in a drug rehab program. Because my answer was no, I was denied any assistance. So I asked if I went outside, got pregnant and did some blow would I then qualify? She said "I know it sounds crazy, but yes. We would approve you immediately". #fyp #publicassistance #lifeintheusa #housingcrisis #skit #reality #latina #boricua #nuyorican

I’m in Canada. I’m in exactly same boat. Make too much to qualify but not enough to pay crazy rents. Salaries not gone up in over 10 years. I’ve even changed jobs. If anything salaries ridiculous low

this is why kids staying with their parents into adulthood is a thing. Our son is still here (which I'm fine with) and our daughter is struggling so much she just might end up back home (with family)

for those of you who are barely over the limit, work a half hour less (whatever would equal the dollar amount that you need) and go back in 4 weeks with those stubs, if the benefit is worth it!

I was a single mother of four sons and made $12 a month too much to qualify for anything. I was tempted to tell my employer to lower my wage but suffered through instead

My sister needed food assistance back in the day so she didn’t go in CC debt feeding her kids. They denied her for making $20 over the limit and told her to have another child or reduce her hours.
