Question About Wic Posted: 08-07-07 14:20pm
I was just curious, since I am married if
I would have to claim mine and my
husband's income? I'm guessing yes, but
I'm not sure and I know there are a lot of
ladies on here that are on WIC and could
tell me the answer a lot faster than
calling the office. I live in Illinois if
that makes a difference. If we don't have
to claim my husband's income, then we
would qualify for a little bit of
assistance, otherwise we will be over the
income limits.
im not sure, i wasnt married when i first
got on wic in florida, then i got married,
i told the lady at the wic office that i
had gotten married but she didnt put my
husbands income or any of his info on my
wic folder. maybe it depends on the person
that works at the office if they are nice
or not.

I'm not sure about Illinois, but I know in
Indiana they do use your husbands income
as well.

Yes, if you are married I'm pretty sure
you have to claim his income. I'm not in
Illinois, but I think WIC is about the
same all over as far as guidelines go.

Yeah, in IL you have to claim your
husbands income too.
I don't have WIC anymore but whenever I
did I remember claiming his income too.

Another Question Posted: 08-07-07 19:41pm
Since you already made this topic, I just
wanted to ask another question about it. I
was wondering if I could probably qualify
for WIC even though I'm on my parents
income? I'll be moving out in a few
months, but even then my child support
will still be paid since I'm not married.
But that money goes directly to my mom to
pay for my college, soI don't actually see
any of it. So, does anyone know if I would
still be able to qualify for it? Hope that
makes some sense, if not I'm sorry.

You shouldn't have to claim your parent's
income. It should only be yours. The best
thing to do is head over to your local
health department to see if you qualify.
