My daughter didn’t qualify for any benefits for her or her baby with that income. Take that back. They did subsidize their health insurance.
These are "poor" people and so they must be on every form of welfare. They don't realize that at that income they do not qualify for most benefits. Or as one guy inferred that if they are working two or three jobs they are working 120 hours a week.
They don't understand that the 40 hour work week for the working poor is gone. 28 hours is the new standard. And you have to be careful to try to fit your two 28 hour jobs together because usually these jobs do not have set schedules so your work hours shift from week to week.
And of course there are weeks when they cut your hours and instead of working 28 you are working 20.
But hey, don't complain. There is an illegal who is willing to work under a stolen social security number for the allotted hours then off the books and paid out of the register for another 29 hours while he collects welfare under three other SS numbers. If you complain they will hire him.
That income ($27k) falls below the WIC threshold requirement for a family of two, so your daughter may have some atypical disqualifying factor. A family with 2-4 children and $27k income is well below the threshold.
