For a single person in the United States the poverty level is defined as $11,490 annual earnings by the 2013 Federal Poverty Level guidelines. The poverty level for a family of four is defined as $23,500 annually.
The federal poverty level (100%) of poverty for a family of 4 is currently something in the realm of $22,000 a year. So, if you're a family of 4 making $44,000 a year, you're at 200% of poverty (conversely, if you're a family of 4 making $11,000, you're at 50% of the poverty level.)
14000 in most states, with only two members in the family.
Well,it depends! I would say probably 50-100 dollars. I would rather say it varies,but this seems like a more valid answer. I hope the person who asked this does not end up in poverty. Bless you and your family.
There are two slightly different U.S. federal poverty measures: poverty thresholds, based on the thrifty food plan by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and poverty guidelines, a simplification of the poverty thresholds used to determine eligibility for a number of programs. The poverty thresholds are established after the year is over, based on the Current Population Survey from March of the current year. For example, the 1998 poverty threshold, which reflects the 1998 calendar year, was calculated by the 1999 March Current Population Survey. Until it is calculated, the poverty threshold is merely an estimate. Poverty thresholds are used mainly for statistical purposes and research, such as preparing estimates of the number of Americans in poverty each year. Poverty guidelines are issued at the beginning of each year, generally in February or March, and are used to determine eligibility for poverty programs such as the Oregon Health Plan. In most cases, guidelines and thresholds can be used interchangeably, except when precision is needed for administrative or legislative purposes. When people talk about the federal poverty level, or federal poverty line, they are usually referring to guidelines, unless it is in a research-oriented context. It is always good to check which is being used.

The poverty level in the United States is updated annually by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The most recent update was announced in January 2023, which established the poverty guidelines for that year. These guidelines are based on changes in the Consumer Price Index and other economic factors.
