Not sure why I should've known about it, as it doesn't pertain to my situation. Sorry, i don't follow govt assistance programs, also I don't know anyone on them who is proud to receive it nor talks about them. I also don't watch TV local station news and local programming. The only two assistance program / govt transfer i am familiar with is social security and unemployment. Other than that, i am ignorant of amounts of welfare, medicaid, SNAP, who qualifies, how to get it, etc. .
Sorry to disappoint you that I am being disingenuous, but a couple can collect combined up to $60K with social security near / at max benefits, hence my comment.
