i864 and assistance

[myangelblue 0]

now i have a new question lil off topic but since my husband came and we didnt expect to get married and all i have been doing work whenever i can and now im getting to i864 i have been on public assistance even before he came due to lack of work where we live but i have been working part time since he has been here . i receive foodstamps and medical for kids but even though hubby lives with me he cant receive which is fine but reason being he cant work without ead . my bills r cheap and soon as he receives ead he will be working and i have just started new job full time so question is because me and kids get assistance will we be denied ? my mom is co sponsoring him aswell . i know with these times it is hard but this has to get better once hubby has ead jus matter of time . that is if he can be approved . any help would be great

You need to prove income above the poverty line for your state. Receiving assistance does not disqualify you immediately. However, you would be better off lining up someone else to serve as a co-sponsor. In either case, if your spouse goes on assistance as well once he is a permanent resident, YOU and the cosponsor will be liable to pay this back.

my mom who is way above line of poverty will co-sponsor , and once hubby has work permit there is no worry . its been hard for this to be on my shoulders alone . hubby dont want to work illegal so i went to school for cna and jus got new job hope this helps
