I applied for SNAP benefits on April 13th of this year 2023 because I am indigent no vehicle no job stuck in the country I do have a roof over my head but that's about it at the moment so I applied for SNAP benefits. I had no food and now still have no food hungry no money to get food no way to go get food. I was approved my case was expedited and in their Texas Works handbook to what it states in that handbook I should have got my prorated amount which I did get in April plus the following months at the same time because my case is expedited I argued and I fought tooth and nail and they were saying that no I did not I was not approved for that even though it states in their handbook obviously they don't go by their policies and it's in the handbook under policy a-150. So I got my prorated amount in April which foods expensive it did not last long but I did get to eat finally. I did not get my next benefit deposit until 41 days after that so technically on my prorated amount I was supposed to live on $4.20 a day for food from the time I got my prorated amount of $168 till my next deposit 41 days later of 281. No good old Texas has a rule if you apply for benefits food benefits you have to work at least 20 hours a week or be actively looking for a job or attend their Workforce things. Now seeing how I don't have a job okay at the moment I also do not have transportation and I have told them this because I was not able to meet those requirements they have taken away one month of my benefits.now keep in mind I was only approved for 3 months of benefits and I can't reapply for 3 years. No I can understand people taking advantage of the system and and benefits and stuff like that but I do not I only applied because I was starving and I needed to eat because if I have a job I'm not going to need those benefits for myself I would have money to eat on and if I had a job I would have a car but the situation that I'm in it's just I don't and now I'm being punished for being hungry and not having the resources that I need to survive now they're going to make me starve that is just ridiculous I am totally livid and disgusted at the state. This is ridiculous on how they treat people who live here it is absurd and uncalled for! So let me just say thank you Texas for absolutely nothing and really showing Texas residents that you don't give a $#*! about them us.
