The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP)

Can 2 people in the same household receive food stamps?
Yes two people in the same household can receive a Pell Grant. If one or more people in your home wish to apply for a Pell Grant to help pay for college it is perfectly OK to do so.
The Federal Pell Grant is based on your household income, number of people attending a higher education institution from the same household and the cost of each individuals attendance. If your household income is relatively low, both applicants may receive a higher amount of award individually than if only one person was applying because of how the FAFSA determines your household and individual financial need.
If both applicants receive the Pell Grant, they will be automatically considered for all the other federal grant programs. In addition, they may also qualify for other 'need based' grants offered by their state government and school/college.

Not always, this varies. For example if you have food stamps in Kentucky, you can use them in vA, NC, TN, and maybe a couple more states. I don't know how this is divided up, but somehow it is.
