Not sure if this is the right forum for my question, but my wife is a green card holder, me and our 2 children are US citizens, we live in California.   Is it okay for my wife to receive public benefits(SNAP, Medi-Cal, etc.)?  We quality based on income, and the State of California is okay with it (they're even given to undocumented immigrant now), but would there be issues with USCIS about me and my joint sponsor having to pay back means-tested benefit as stated on the affidavit of support?
