no they wil give u more

But thats only if you are in school

If you go to school, they can deny your food stamp benefits. My advisor told me I have to work at least 20 hours if I go to school in order to qualify

@tifftaff, I work about 25-30 hours a week. I have my medical card through them but since I started working less and making less money I haven't applied for food stamps. They denied me before because I was making too much but now I'm not so I just have to reapply

You would get more. You don't need to work to get foodstamps only need to work or out looking for work to receive cash assistance

@myfirstbaby97, how many hours do you work ?

thank you ladies . I am going to have to call and talk to them and yes I live in kansas.

I don't think they will shit it off mama, explain the situation about being high risk and that you can't work as much as you used to....

@lashellg, I live in Kansas which is where she lives according to her profile so that's how I know they won't stop her case. They will give her more.

Actually look into where you live. Everywhere is different. You should be able to receive as long as you have income in. Here in Ga next year, you will be required to have a job or some kind of income to qualify for food stamps and to stay on the program. Your maternity leave should not affect it.

and that the only reason they put me on it is cause I'm pregnant but do they expect me to work that much being high risk??

I've always been told that I have to work to get food stamps

That's what I thought too I'm just so afraid of getting shut off because of me not working the 20 hours that they recommend

DCF will not cut you off for lowered hours. They will probably give you more in food stamps. And same for maternity leave

no, If anything your benefits should go up because you're making less
