I've been left outside homeless for over two years now with no housing. The Dr I was seeing misdiagnosed me, treated me for arthritis.. I had a broken neck I went to see my son he deployed from Georgia.. I was here two days and was rushed to the hospital I couldn't walk or use my arms I had an emergency surgery on my neck now I am learning how to walk.. I'm 3000 Miles from home stuck in Georgia.. I want to be home in Idaho.. My brother wants me at his house where my address is .. Terrible

Helpful staff but the service is too slow 43 windows and only 4 windows open waiting time is around 60-90 minutes

The work they are doing is extremely important but it's not treated as such. While staff is always helpful, most of the time they don't awnser the phone and I never receive a call back.

I have heard that those who have kids in the home will get food stamps without income limit, is this true

Merla Brewer | Oct 1, 2020
John Woodward | Oct 1, 2020

Not at all. They limit you to your income. I believe the limit for income with one child was 1200.00!!!

If I am receiving food stamp assistance and a relative passes away and I receive an inheritance, does that or will that affect my benefits?

Billiard Buddy | Oct 1, 2020
John Woodward | Oct 1, 2020

Yes it can. They will expect you to use your inheritance for groceries!!!

I am part of trade act and recieving benefits. Would I qualify for some kind of health insurance?

Barbarian Artist | Oct 1, 2020
Duane Stitt | Oct 1, 2020

The Trade Act itself would not disqualify you. Your eligibility would be determined by your income and the number of people in your home, among other things. You can easily apply online at www.idalink.idaho.gov.
