Using CHIP, WIC, or food stamps will not affect your immigration status. Using Medicaid can only be a problem if you are in a nursing home or other long-term care

NOOOO! you can even request a fee waiver if you receive food stamps. there’s no repercussion receiving these benefits and the N400 application nor the officer at the interview will ask you about it.

Wow the least of a burden you are to the country is the best result ..is what my lawyer stated I wouldn't risk it

technically you rnt a burden cuz the country/gov is giving since you are a citizen. and they just don’t give you, they first check to see if you qualify, so basically you are qualifying yourself!
Judith HowardJun 18, 2022
Jenny I suppose you went through the full process Aswell as signed a form stating you would receive any kind of government assistance..?
Judith HowardJun 18, 2022
wouldn't

Jenny kJun 18, 2022
nope I didn’t, but just telling you that some might need the help so it’s not a burden.
Judith HowardJun 18, 2022
There is a form you sign throughout the process stating you will not receive government assistance

it depends guys, under Trump it could disqualify people from getting citizenship as there was something about a public charge rule but I know under Biden they tried/did change that. Immgration laws do vary depending on the party in power.

there’s no longer a public charge rule and even when that was in place it did not applied to CURRENT GREEN CARD HOLDERs APPLYING FOR CITIZENSHIP nor did it apply to individuals receiving food stamps.
