How do you get welfare in the US if you do not have any documents?

Question

My apologies for the offense I appear to have committed.

I am neither a resident of the US nor an immigrant of any sort.

I have been reading about undocumented immigrants who are accused of taking work, medical services and welfare without supporting documentation, on a large scale.

This is not possible in most countries so I enquired on this international message board how such a thing could be so. This question was not intended to unleash such a wave of hatred.

Answer 1

You should think about getting a job instead of welfare.  Don't go out and have a baby just to get the money either, this is not the way.  We built this country on work and ethics, not laziness!

Answer 2

if you don't know how to get it, you don't need it.

while you're sitting on the computer wasting time trying to see about walfare see about a job.

its not fair to tax payers they're working so why don't you

Answer 3

have a baby ....forget one have three babies!

Cant deny children born in The Good Ol' USA to illegal aliens welfare.

Answer 4

get a job you lạzy bum!

Answer 5

That's why they're called Anchor Babies!  

Answer 6

Hows about you take your illegal a__ back to where you came from? What the H-LL makes you think we want you sorry A-- here? NO PRIDE NO GUTS NO MONEY NO WAY JOSE! GET OUT!  

Answer 7

This website is not for solicitation of information to commit fraud...and that's exactly how it's done. ID theft and fraud.

Answer 8

A person in the US  illegally can't get benefits, but if they have a baby born here than can get benefits for the baby. It is considered a citizen and is therefore eligible. If they have a green card they are a legal permanent resident and can get benefits. Anyone is eligible for emergency medical care.

Answer 9

they use stolen social security cards and ID's.  There was a 80 year old women in a nursing home in FL and she was notified that her Soc sec. checks were being stopped because she was working at a factory in TX..she had never even been to TX and had been in a nursing home for about 10 years but somehow they got her social security number. She was too be kicked out of the nursing home because she lost her check, she couldn't pay..she had nowhere to go. i still don't know how that turned out. There was a child who tried to get an apt at 18 and when they ran a credit check, it showed she had purchased something at the age of 10 for a million dollars and never paid for it. (ID theft)..The assistance programs due not verify this info as they should.  

Answer 10

anchor babies, of course and dont forget identity theft and fraud.  Stealing or using stolen ss #'s/ Idenditication can allow the person to obtain welfare.  Though it amazes me the state agencies to not fully check out the numbers being used.

Answer 11

Hopefully you can't. Also, I think that if people should have to pass a drug screening to be employed and pay taxes that help fund the welfare program, those who receive welfare should have to pass a drug screening to get paid.  

Answer 12

How about you get a job so people like me and my husband(who have jobs) don't have to support you?
