Most households with low income can get SNAP benefits. The rules are complex, so all of the details are not here. The most important factors which determine the amount of, and eligibility for, SNAP benefits are:
-income and expenses;
-the number of persons who live and eat together

Your application must be reviewed by DHS staff at the Family Community Resource Center. If you apply for benefits and are eligible, you will receive a notice of your eligibility.
