Answer 1

I think you have to bring proof of income instead. Call you local office.

Answer 2

If you make too much money together why are you still trying to get assistance? You shouldn't keep taking advantage if you don't need it.  

Answer 3

you may wic guidelines are a little more lient then  but yes you may loose it if your income went up from when you enrolled

Answer 4

I agree with Jen.  If you make "too much" money, then you should have enough to cover your basic needs.  Why try to take from people who may truly need it?  You have the money, so buy your own food.  

Answer 5

Depends, WIC has a higher income guidline to follow so you may still get WIC but instead of the card you will need to take in proof of income and see if you still qualify.  

Answer 6

Is Maine Care like Medicaid? If so, I think you might still be able to keep WIC. I'm in a different state, but here if you have Medicaid you automatically qualify for WIC. If you don't have Medicaid, you might still qualify for WIC anyway, depending on your income level. I think you should call your WIC office ahead of time and ask them. They might tell you to bring other documentation instead. Good luck.
