I took everything they needed. Because my bank statement shows paypal deposits I have to fax them my paypal history from the beginning of the year. Bill has to have a paper filled out from his work which he is a shuttle driver for ford and they are shut down for two weeks. So I have to mail that to them and of course that will probably hold us up a couple of weeks. So by the time everything is done and if we get approved it will still be close to another 30 days. So much for emergency food stamps. 1|1|crazy red tape (m)|gwens29|gwen41539@bellsouth.net|12:06:40|09/27/2013|

I no it will getting better just hoping it does before it gets alot worse. I am so tired and stressed out, not knowing how I am to pay this or that and I thought at least the food stamps would help and I wouldn't have to worry about food. I don't do good on garage sales in my area that is why I sell most of it on here. I have two days off in a row next week so will have to try and find some stuff to make up a goodie box and sell on the auction boards. 4|1|Do you have Craig's list to where you can sell misc. items locally?|Jorainna|jorainna@aol.com|13:39:34|09/27/2013|

I have sold one or two gift baskets that way. Just throw some stuff in a spare basket and make it look pretty ... use a pack of Dollar Tree shrink wrap. Ask for $15 to $25 depending on the stuff and you have money to buy groceries for one night. An idea, anyhow... 5|1|You mentioned in the other post that the shuttle you DH works for is not actually a part|teener|teenerzacsneenee@yahoo.com|14:18:34|09/27/2013|

for the trucking company. They are off for the two weeks also. We either have to wait until they go back to work or mail it to them and wait for them to mail it or fax it to the welfare department. If we wait who knows if the dispatchers or whatever their title is are allowed to fill it out and if we mail it who knows if they will get it filled out and sent right back. So not sure which way we will do it but either way it still is going to be awhile. 7|1|I have sold on the garage sale facebook page|crenchen|crenchen@aol.com|15:00:05|09/27/2013|

for my area a few things but then again you have to be selling something someone wants. All we can do it take it one day at a time. Make are food last and pay what we can on the bills. I am just afaid to get so behind in the house payment that we will never get it caught up. But there is nothing else I can do. 8|1|? about the 2 weeks off So Ford closes down for the two weeks and I believe|teener|teenerzacsneenee@yahoo.com|16:55:37|09/27/2013|

that when they do that here they still pay the workers ( not sure if it is full pay or not) does the shuttle company do the same? Like that is their vacation? Your husband is still employed so will he get that check? 9|1|Tina, I think if you are not an "Active" employee (On the clock paid worker at the time of the shut down) you lose it, at least thats what happened to my dad this year because he was off for kidney stones.. I could be wrong though... It depends on the company|kandywolf|kandywolf@gmail.com|19:41:52|09/27/2013|

You have to have very little money coming in or expected to come in to qualify. So if you are working and have steady income now then you probably won't get the emergency ones. I know they say 30 days but most caseworkers do it in less time. 13|2|more info|cinda68|null@yahoo.com|22:42:00|09/27/2013|

What are emergency SNAP benefits? Who is eligible?
Expedited benefits mean that you may receive benefits within seven days. We suggest you go in person to your local DTA office to apply.

To be eligible for expedited benefits, you must meet one of these three criteria:

Income and money in the bank add up to less than the monthly housing expenses
Monthly income is less than $150, and money in the bank is less than $100
The applicant is a migrant worker, and money in the bank is less than $100
If you believe you are eligible for expedited benefits but don't get them, you have a right to a conference with a DTA supervisor.
