I got a letter from my food stamps today.And I get a $20 cut.It's not fair.They think you can live offer.Lisa Mallory least amount of money you can get.I wish they walk in our shoes
They need to give us back the SNAP benefits that they took from us I don't know about anybody else but they took snap from me 3 months ago WHY?? Nothing has changed in my household.. CUZ of a COLA raise that I have NOT received yet ?????
You need to contact them and find out what's going on, we renew twice a year using an SSDI income via online and make sure we send all the bills including mortgage, utilities, info on people in the household, that we are both disabled etc etc etc
I tell you what I’ve been thinking about is the government giving money, free phones, Food Stamps, and all the government benefits as soon as they cross the border and give them free rides to wherever they want to go to their new homes. That’s what I’ve been thinking about.
It's very true they get everything handed to them and we get nothing ty Biden ím so glad ur gone u lied ur way into the white house boy was I fooled for believing in you
I would love that to because Government will say it is there for people and then they give the yearly amounts and people are well below the amounts but still dont qualify, if you find out will you let me know 😂
Because of the Cola I just got a letter that I'm losing $11.00 off my food stamps. I'm in Ohio with a Republican Governor. Thanks Republicans for not a damn thing!
@clarencehannon food stamps are a federally funded program. Has nothing to do with your state. Educate yourself...it's the federal government which we have a Democrat president.
My daughter's on SSI. She gets snap benefits and she only gets $233 a month and then she just got a paper in the mail saying that they're going to drop it cuz she got a boost in her SSI check coming up so it don't matter. You'll never get ahead on SSI
@@earlsupplee2207 SSDI either omg this has to stop, get a lousy 2.5 percent increase and they increase everything else so it's like a point 5 increase and that doesn't buy anything
Hello Matt they deceased mine because of the raise on my check they shouldn't be allowed to do that!! Thanks for the information and you have a good day 😊.
Are these SNAP benefits the Federal or State EBT rates? All I know is my State benefits totals $128/ mo. You tell me, with my only income being social security, how do they expect any healthy foods to be purchased with that, if any?
Get a raise and then they take away your food stamps it's not fair what my rely on Jesus and they're always turns out good one way or another I make it it's hard
I only received 26.00 in snap food stamps because I get Ssi ! I was told I get too much in Ssi. I go hungry from the 15th of each month till the 9th of the next month!😢😢😢😢😢 shameful
I got a tiny little 14 dollars a month raise on both ssi and ssa which isn't but 28 dollars a month on both benefits that's just pennies ! But Biden can keep sending billions over to Ukraine! Hell yeah he's really for the Americans who are struggling to keep bills and food on the table ! Right? Nahhh
I'm the only person that lives in my household and I don't get no 292.00 a month and I don't draw very much money a month. And in October they took 19.00 away from me, if I was homeless than I would get 292.00 plus when I get the little raise in January they'll take more away from me.
And Trump, while on the campaign trail, he said he would immediately lower prices on food and now he’s saying, he saying that he won’t be able to do it because of the prices already being so high already, he can’t just go in and say lower prices. Well, if people used their brains, they would’ve known that when he said it to start with.
There are those who receive ssi/ssdi/retirement, ect, that have the ability to work and earn extra money should they wish to.. They won't, but they could.. or they'll work for money under the table. If they're caught well then that just makes it more difficult for EVERYONE else. And sadly, even if they're caught its never THEIR fault. It's the person who caught them or the office or, hell, maybe even their neighbors.. but never their fault. I'm not sure exactly what it'd take to fix this broken system.. but a good start would be to cancel ALL those overpriced snap/money cards given to the illegal migrants. Fire and arrest those who came up with this idiotic plan . Be they elected officials or hired people should not matter. And until the problems are fixed there should NOT be any excessively paid politicians or directors ect.Maybe if their wages were cut in half until it was fixed.maybe then these idiots in charge would be as they should be AFRAID of those Americans they're suppose to be taking care of. Afraid because they could be fired Or they could be arrested.. Any and all the officials who have "qualified immunity" needs to be abolished or rescinded so the fear will be in the back of the officials minds as it should be instead of the "I'm better that you attitud" I've received because I dared to be so bold as to ask for help. Seriously.
You know what SSI marriage penalty is. Our rent and utilities went up. We don't make the maximum of one 😂 The only way you would get a $500+ in SNAP is if you had 0 income. All we own is a 51 year old mobile home. No way this is true. I got a $22 cut.
@ I totally understand that that. I see people who work and get more and even people who work has five kids and get nothing. It’s sad how they do us low income people. It’s almost like they favor some over others. Ik it’s not true but sure feels like it.
These amounts are for people who meet the criteria for income! I have a household of 3, with two people on ssi, and I’m only going to be getting 140 next year, which has dropped about 30 dollars from this year
I have been trying too get the food card for months and all the agents are concerned about trying to sell me a policy. I already have A& B I’m 73 retired and the agents are not interested other than selling me another policy. I explained to them I have Aetna.
Nothing is free. Cut out all the EBT money and give it to the seniors and vets who deserve it. Having babies you can't afford is not the taxpayers responsibility.
But whoever's on social security they lower your food stamps benefits My mother is on so security they lowered her food stamps down to $27 but she got a raise this year and her social security
I'm a household of one and I don't get that much. 292 would help me out a lot.Not fair.The system is not for the people.Only certain ones cricket.People get away with everything.I know of you and they make more than I do because I know how to work the system
If you do the math you know we're getting screwed all the way around
A few pennies here and a few pennies there that's all we see these days I can't even live alone because I just can't afford it
Food stamps are starving the low income
Guess that is why America has the worst obesity problem in the world right?
Right I get a whopping $23 plain ridiculous a big slap in the face
Thats all i get is 23
Yep $23 here also for 2 adults
If you get too much household income or over the required amount in ssi . They will give you only $23 a month in snap
Seems like it is unanimous. $23.00
sucks.
Me too
People on social security are starving.
I got a letter from my food stamps today.And I get a $20 cut.It's not fair.They think you can live offer.Lisa Mallory least amount of money you can get.I wish they walk in our shoes

Got cut also 20 bucks because of cola

You need to speak to your caseworker's supervisor.
You need to contact them and find out what's going on, we renew twice a year using an SSDI income via online and make sure we send all the bills including mortgage, utilities, info on people in the household, that we are both disabled etc etc etc
Well, try being just 1 collecting snap benefits!! I’m lucky if I get just $23 a month!!
I was receiving 200 ebt then down 23 dollars

@@DevinLibertystupid statement!!
I would like to see how SNAP benefits are actually calculated. Some of this doesn't make sense and I don't even receive SNAP benefits!
I would love that to because Government will say it is there for people and then they give the yearly amounts and people are well below the amounts but still dont qualify, if you find out will you let me know 😂

13.00 for cola
@clarencehannon food stamps are a federally funded program. Has nothing to do with your state. Educate yourself...it's the federal government which we have a Democrat president.
You have to remember they go by your income.
Mine went down do to cola, I will average about 8 dollars more a month woohoo I can get a water bottle
A lot of people have been abusing the system for so long 😮😢 making it harder for others that actually need it as always
I get 256 im Happy plus my social security
They combined my SSI and SSD and my Snap dropped down to 23 from 83.

Hello Matt they deceased mine because of the raise on my check they shouldn't be allowed to do that!! Thanks for the information and you have a good day 😊.
What happened to the "Colas Don't Count" Act????
Are these SNAP benefits the Federal or State EBT rates? All I know is my State benefits totals $128/ mo. You tell me, with my only income being social security, how do they expect any healthy foods to be purchased with that, if any?
It's by state. I believe.
That’s the thing…they don’t care if we the low income people of the US starve or not!!
Good news great for social security recipients 😊😊😊😊😊
We can't have a fixed system under a inflating economy
I have received $23 for YEARS!!! I am low income.
I think everybody's feeling broke I'm tired of being taken advantage of the number one thing I rely on Jesus it all seems to turn out okay
I don't even get that maximum benefit
Get a raise and then they take away your food stamps it's not fair what my rely on Jesus and they're always turns out good one way or another I make it it's hard
Matt you're 100% right
It's not fair to none of the American people
I only get 92.00 monthly in food stamps
Wow!! Wish I got that much! How many people do u collect for!!?
@barbwhitcomb8395 they only count the rent lights and your internet that's it here they don't give the full amount here

They raise our ssi with the cola but then cut our food stamps because we got that tiny raise. Make it make sense 🤨
They took 11 dollars off my food stamps seance they raised my social security and my SSI

Because one person eats alone two people eat together it’s not separate food
Mine went up to $99/month. Disabled senior citizen.

Im on ssi in a 1 person household and I've never received $292. I get $210.
It's official I am still rich I get 23 bucks a month.
Matt because everything is so out of wake are we going to get more because im a seniors and its not getting any better .
I think food stamps really sucks all I get $23.00 per mo.
Hope not sick my tax dollars going to that
We are poor, and they pray on us because we let them, and we have no one in Washington on our side.
I'm at the max level for foodstamps which is $292
Then you must have no income
@@patworthington8770possibly
23 dollars for 2 people what's that supposed to buy😢
I get $13 a month, with the cola raise I will probably be told I no longer qualify.
I use to get $20 nothing anymore after the last COLA raise I’m sick of them.

If ur social security goes up our food stamp go down
And it should with people who get child tax credit
$17,000 only $445. per month for food for 3? Yea its rough, Yet on paper they say its more. So someone sending it elsewhere
The illegal get rent free and ebt. Were American we should be getting what illegal are getting we have paid taxes sometime wrong with this
Illegals don't get free EBT and housing prove it!!!!
