It depends upon what the felony is for. Most felons can get food stamps. The exception is drug felons - some drug felons can, and some can't get food stamps. In most cases, if the felony was for simple possession, you are still eligible for food stamps. If it was for sales or transportation, you are disqualified.
Yes. It's a felony.
No it doesn't. I actually know a guy who has a felony and receives food stamps.
yes
I don't believe that the law prevents you from filing for assistance.
Only one way to find out. Send in an application.
The food from the food stamps need to go to the person for whom they were intended.
Illegal immigrants can't get food stamps (any children they have while they're in the US can, but the people who immigrated illegally cannot) and they most certainly do get felony convictions for illegal drugs.
No. A felony drug conviction is the only felony that bars you from assistance. They are currently working on trying to pass a law where drug felons can take a program to get them. As of now, its NO.
Food stamps are a federal program and federal law does not prohibit a previously convicted person from receiving food stamps.
Food stamps are designed to be used only by the person that they are given to. To sell them to another person is illegal and is an abuse to the system. There is a great amount of people that are given food stamps and then they sell them to someone else for a profit. This hurts those that really need them.
it healthy GREAT VALUE FOOD.
