Public assistance such as EBT cards are granted based upon the applicant's income, the number of persons in the family and so forth. There are millions of people known as the "working poor" who, although gainfully employed do not earn enough to pay for essentials such as food after other debts have been paid.

Child support has no connection with whether or not a custodial parent receives public assistance such as "food stamps". Child support is exactly what the term implies, support of a minor child/children not the adults in the household.

She is legally responsible for the support of the child no matter where she is in this world. I suggest you return to court and ask for support. If you're on food stamps, you signed a waiver on child support. They will file against her. see link below

If there was an order in place, it's enforceable - there's no statute of limitations on collecting past-due child support. However, the State will intervene in order to be reimbursed for assistance issued (but not food stamps). If no order was ever entered, it's too late now unless the child is severely handicapped.

Can the state of Michigan take you child support if you receive food stamps and medicaid?

I live in Indiana, and I know they keep child support to pay back TANF (welfare) In some instances Medicaid as well. Every state might be different. In my state regardless of how much child support a person gets they only receive the first $50 if they get a welfare check and the rest goes to the state. They wont take it for food stamps.
