Food Stamps - Texas Requirements and Benefits

Some of the most important benefits of the Texas Stamp program are that it can be used efficiently by people with lower income. The program is designed in a way that those in an emergency situation also would be able to get the most of the situation. The benefits can be rendered faster when the individual is in emergency state. To identify whether a family is in emergency or not the following criterion is used.

  • When a family's monthly income is less than 150 dollars or the total value of the resources the family posses is only 100 dollars or less then they can avail the emergency benefits.
  • If the family's monthly income or the value of resources is less than the most recent amount of loan or rent or any sort of mortgage then they are eligible for the emergency benefits.
  • If there is a seasonal farm worker or a migrant in the family then the family is eligible for the emergency benefits of the Texas Stamp program only when the total resource value in the family is less than 100 dollars.
To avail these benefits and to know more about it, it is best to call 2-1-1.
