Thank you for your advice. We buy our food seperately and cook it together. For example: if we want chicken each of us will buy a bag a chicken and cook it together. Same for veggies and such, he'll buy one can and I'll buy another, it's split right down the middle. I don't know if I will qualify because of that, but I have an interview tomorrow. I'm not going to lie about anything, I just want to know if I qualify for any help.Originally Posted by Misty8723
I haven't read this entire thread, and without commenting on your situation with your SO, this is what I have learned about food stamps, at least in PA, where my sister lives. If you buy and prepare your meals together, you're consided a "family" for the purposes of eligibility. If you buy and prepare your meals separately, then you as an individual are the only one considered. It may be different in other states. The only way you will know for sure is to apply. Good luck!
