Additional food stamp assistance got dropped from the deal. I've heard that checks will go out from $300 to $1200, depending on family situation and income level. High income folks won't get anything.
The details of the deal are supposed to be announced this afternoon, so stay tuned. |

if you file taxes in 2007 you'll get the "stimulus" money...
it has no other bearing on you or food stamps or ssi or unemployment or welfare
bottom line
got to earn money to get money |

Unless you paid taxes throughout the year 2007 then you are exempt from any return. The less taxes one pays then the less one receives. The minimum is $300, the maximum is $800 per individual, and per married couple is as much as $1600. As a food stamp recipiant, its my educated guess that your annual income is below average thus you will get around the minimum. |

I FOLLOW THESE ISSUES PRETTY CLOSELY. I HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING THIS ISSUE AS WELL. I HAVE BEEN FOLLOWING BOTH THE CONGRESS AND SENATE HEARINGS. WITHOUT GOING INTO EVERYONES NAMES AND TITLES ALL THE ECONOMISTS AND TWO MAJOR ONES WHO I RESPECT HAVE DETERMINED THAT THIS IDEA IS ONE OF THE SEVERAL BEST IDEAS TO INCLUDE IN A STIMULUS PACKAGE. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT THE LEGISLATORS ARE NOT GOING TO INCLUDE THIS IN THIS STIMULUS PACKAGE. IT IS STILL BEING NEGOCIATED I COULD BE WRONG. AT THIS POINT IN THE NEGOCIATIONS THIS ITEM DOES NOT LOOK LIKE IT WILL BE INCLUDED. |

No but that doesn't mean you will get less food stamps if you cash it. Xeon Black there are numerous people who work and still get food stamps because they don't make a living wage. What needs to change is they should be paid more. Most food stamp recipients do work. |

I don't think the food stamp deal was approved. Which is fine, just get rid of welfare and the economy will be fine in no time. |

Nobody knows anything yet about what, if anything will happen because there is nothing to know. |

They refused to increase food stamp amounts. The rebates will be for individuals who earned less than 85,000 and couples who earned less than 110,000. The key word is "earned". So, you have to have had earned income and paid SS taxes, but not federal income taxes. The rebates for individuals will be 600, couples 1200 and people with children will get up to 300 per child. This is all contingent on it passing.
Sorry. It's a bonus for working people and families that will also have to be claimed as income next year. |

as I said in one of your other questions, President Bush wants to increase food stamps. Because of the way congress works, it might not happen though. |
