Does anyone get cash assistance?? If so please explain how it goes... Thank you for your time!!


Have a great one!!
 
What do you mean? DFS? Food Stamps? SSI? SSDI? What? Explain more. Thank you.
 
If your a person with disability, then your better off with SSA than cash assistance. Reason? Number one, there is time limitation on cash assistance, anywhere from 3 to 5 years, depending on where you live. Once you used up all of it, you can't get it anymore til you sleep in coffin! So, use SSA now, in case in future SSA cuts off completely, then you have something to back yourself up. Second reason, if for any reason they "welfare" decided that you are not eligible, they CAN demand money back, much worse than SSA would do... by garnish your wages, taxes, etc!!! EVEN can "foreclose" your real estate properties too! SSA doesn't do these things. So, just be careful... How do I know? I went though and I STOPPED cold when there is paper that they asked me to sign... I asked the caseworker... WHAT *IF* one of you made mistake and find me ineligible, would you chase me down? THeir answer was yes. I then said WHOA!!!! NO NO!!! NO WAY!... So, they said sign it can get cash assistance or refuse sign and get nothing. So I refused! Then this caseworker said that I was making very smart decision.
 
Some of that's true. But some is not. I guess it just depends on the situation. One thing I do know if you are eligible at that time & get assistance for anything. They can't come back later and say you owe them this and that or whatever, unless you gave them false information & not tell them everything they needed to know at that time. But it is your responsibility to inform them of any changes. That way they can't do that to you later on.
