Your county department of social services

It depends on the amount of your yearly income.

They might, it just depends on your situation. They probably will help you until your benefits kick in. The approval process is a bit different than it used to be. So I'd just go and apply, the worst they can say is no.

No

Yes go soon as they open

First thing in the morning

Call press 0 speak to operator ask to speak to the food stamp supervisor and ask them. If that don't work you will want to go there in person.

I I know that they do it for people that have to have Like Oxygen to breathe or some kind of medical necessity or something like that I know that they have help for that I'm not sure about regular assistance funds. They helped us with hours because of Gene having to have oxygen to sleep at night

It aint thier family they dont care

Yes it is along with several other things. Especially if you are a Veteran or a family member of one.

Ask at the front desk

I took my mom there without any appointment and they were WONDERFUL. Accomplished all sign ups in under 2 hours

It varies based on what program you may be eligible for. Income, assets, children etc and varies from state to state because many but not all programs are partially subsidized by the Federal government! NC is not great for helping the poor, needy and homeless or those without children! I've been in several states ... this is one of the worst! I've been lucky, didn't need much ... always worked

There's nothing like the information a phone call can gather. And free phones are available from the government if you don't have one yet. New changes with free phones even allow for internet use. Not sure how much time is given but you get 500 free minutes of talk, unlimited text, and some internet so you don't have to run to the library to use the computer. By the way, library is currently giving 3 hours of free time per day on their computers per library card holder so the kids can get their own time and not have to use yours. Adult computers are on the 2nd fl and kids are on basement level. Day care help is outside my area. Try the other suggestions.

Insist on leaving a message for your worker's supervisor. Get his/her name and direct line phone number. I'm close to starting a group for people not satisfied with the poor reception and even more for the those who aren't getting enough in benefits! This is a Federal/State funded program. Bring in every bill you can think of that might help you... rent, water, electric, gas,oil, necessary repairs to the home if needed dor someone in the house, especially all UNpaid as well as paid medical bills! Doctor's office co-pays, prescription drugs, medically necessary equipment etc! All the rules and regulations are online for what is allowed or not allowed. If you aren't satisfied the main word when dealing with state or federal programs is "APPEAL, APPEAL, APPEAL!" You'd be surprised what you can get in an appeal that the worker may not have allowed! Be prepared to fight for your benefits!

If they have funds available they will

No they only assist with getting you benefits and electric bills

DSS cannot help you! You need to go to SOCIAL SECURITY! Do NOT put this off. Social Security recommends you go 3 months prior to turning 65.
