Can I get food stamps if I quit my job?

When you quit your job without an acceptable reason, you might not be able to obtain food stamps. However, if you quit your job because you were in a dangerous situation, such as one involving an unsafe working environment, or if domestic violence issues at home caused this, then you might be eligible for food stamps.

To understand your specific eligibility for food stamps, you must also take a look at the income and resource requirements. If you have a small amount of income coming in (or no income at all), you might be eligible for food stamps. Although there is a specific income and finance threshold, and if you are above it, you may not be eligible for this benefit.

Food stamps are also referred to as SNAP benefits. The laws, rules, guidelines, and specific eligibility can vary, depending on the state you live in. To find out more information you should reach out to your local SNAP benefit office, or visit its website. This will help you understand your eligibility for food stamps, and the application process in order to apply for the benefit.
