You shouldn't be receiving the benefits and your sponsor CAN be sued to pay back the government, but as long as you're not receiving any CASH benefits they're not public charge issues so no, they don't affect whether you will get a GC or not. If you are receving cash benefits then yes, you can have your GC revoked.

The USC can obtain the benefits but you as an immigrant are not eligible until you've been an LPR for 5 years, so if you ARE getting them you shouldn't be.

Who is on welfare? Your family or you. You are not supposed to be on welfare or receive beneftis because whomever sponsored you with I-864 is responsibile for any means tested government programs. If your family receives the benefits, you are to be excluded. The federal government will sue whomever your sponsor is for repayment of benefits that you received.

Also, you are able bodied and can get out and go to work. Just because you live in America now, does not mean you cannot work. I think that it is sad that you feel that this is the way of life. How can you live on welfare and in section 8 housing, and think that it is OK, cause you are tired. Everyone gets tired from work daily. ranting33va.gif

If you lied on your paperwork to obtain these benefits, then it is fraud and you will be under the prosecution under that law.

Also, you are not eligible for a fee waiver on means tested benefits, you are not entitled to. Are you still married?

I am feeling the urge to buy a new trolling motor,

You should not have been given any of the things you mention but you know that. I feel that a few clerks need some re education.

This will not be over quickly. You will not enjoy this.

I really hope this is just a troll trying to get people riled up.

I hope she is a troll too! This kind of stuff makes the whole immigration process look bad!

Could you please explain how did you get all these benefits? People are working hard while immigrating, and they pay taxes, and a lot of them cannot afford any kind of health insurance, and they still carry on. This is simply unfair to Americans that make a minimum wage per hour and do not receive any benefits, yet they still help others and don't cheat the system. You are tired? Of what?You are using the benefits of this Country illegally, and seem to enjoy it. Do you have any physical disabilities?

you said your petitioner is on SSI... not possible, they wouldn't have let him petition you if he was on welfare, that means that you have a co-sponsor, and he is the one who is responsible for you
