QUESTION-Can undocumented individuals and/or refugees apply for and receive SNAP (food stamps). If so, how would their benefits be calculated?

ANSWER-Citizens and permanent residents of five years or more are eligible for SNAP. If an undocumented person lives in a household where a household member(s) is a citizen or a permanent resident, they can apply for SNAP together. If an undocumented person has children who are citizens, they can apply for SNAP.

-An undocumented person will not be included in the filing group of the household applying for benefits. However, a portion of their income may be counted in calculating the benefit amount of the other eligible household members.

-Because eligibility varies among certain immigrant and refugee groups if the applicant does not know if they are eligible, they can inquire with Department of Human Services (DHS).
