THANKFULLY STILL ALIVE NO THANKS TO THESE WORKERS! When I was still a child I saw a woman here who told those working on my case that I made it all up for attention. IM NOW DIAGNOSED AUTISTIC and no longer in contact with my abuser. These people are not here to help you IN THE SLIGHTEST. If I could sue I would, these people are put in these places on purpose they are all CORRUPT.

Questions & Answers

My son has no income and lives with me. Can he get assistance and food stamps?

Rosalie Carbone | Sep 20, 2021

The NY Benefits website has a "prescreening tool" available --- your son will need to answer the questions asked and when finished, the tool determines which services he is eligible to receive and will tell you about each service in detail. He can also submit an application online for food stamps (SNAP) and TA (Temporary Assistance) through the same site. The website is: http://www.ny.mybenefits.gov I hope this helps. 👍

You'd have to go to your local department of social services and ask for emergency housing ,and they should be able to help you, but if it's after 5:00 p.m. call 211 and they have to house you and transport you to the nearest shelter.....they will not abandon you ....and will provide the help you need

Is dss open today

If i lost my job can i get a 1 shot deal from them to pay my mortgage? I also have a 1 year old would they be able to help with anything in that sort?

IDK their algorithms for assistance. From what I've heard, the max they award for housing is $417. Fill out EM (Emergency Assistance Program) application. You can also look at New York State Mortgage Assistance Program (https://nysmap.org). Also search for RECAP (Regional Economic Community Action Program, Inc) they can counsel you to different help organizations. DO NOT count on DSS, expect a denial then file fore a Fair Hearing Request (FHR). I have been denied 6 times, filed 6 FHR and won all 6.

Can I apply for food stamps and medicade at this location
