I am a married mother with two infants living at home with my mother. I am unemployed and marital status doesn't play into my eligibility because my husband is trapped out of the US with no income. I am not eligable for welfare because I my mothers income is included in my application since it goes off of household income. The only way to get around this would be if I could through bank statements ect, prove that my mother was not financially supporting us. I have to show some income or else they assume she is footing the bill and will not give welfare of any kind. Also you have to give proof of address in the form of a utility or rental agreement, I have a phone line... but do you think casey had one of these? Welfare is not easy to obtain, they do an analysis of bank statements, account history, paystubs, tax filings, ect. Also if you are on welfare they have mandatory programs where you have to attend career training and/or job counseling/hunting sessions for a certain amount of hours per a week, but they will give a childcare allowance for the time spent. Just my experience in Cali.
