[QUOTE="DammitJanet, post: 274260, member: 1514"] Lisa...I was afraid of this. Now, I will answer some things. I dont know how MO works with welfare but I know how NC works so maybe MO is the same. Welfare doesnt cover rent. You can apply for low income housing but there is a real backlog unless you are homeless. Now I dont know what staying in a motel would be considered. Maybe that would be considered homeless. Also...does husband have any criminal record? If so or if K has one, even a small one, that could be a hold up. Here if you have a criminal record they make you wait so long...like a year or so for misdemeanors and I dont know how long for felonies...and if it is drug offenses I dont know if you can even get in. Beats the hell out of me how they have anyone in these low income housing projects because most people with low income are also in court constantly...lol. Now why she would let medicaid drop is just idiotic. With her getting welfare for her and the kids, medicaid should be automatically attached. What she should be getting is TANF. TANF and Food Stamps. But that is interesting because of husband being in the household. Welfare would be breathing down their necks for husband to be getting training or something to get a job. Actually for both of them to find work. These days there is a 5 year max on TANF. Unless both parents are disabled and or a few more reasons but those dont apply here. (you could get TANF for the kids) No one is going to deem her husband disabled. Maybe her but he could work and they would count his income and that 5 years would come in. It gets more complicated and I could go into more detail if you want me to. Most probably what has happened is that she hit a deadline and lost TANF, moved over to just medicaid and food stamps. They have no money coming in. [/QUOTE]
