What Income Is Included For SNAP Eligibility?

My daughter receives survivors benefits from the loss of her husband. Her children 10 and 13 also receive the same. If she applies for SNAP does she use only her income from survivor benefits or does she include include the childrens benefit as her income. She dose not work right now.

Hi,

Sorry, but I'm not an expert on the SNAP program. You'll need to check with the agency that handles those benefits.

Best,
Jerry
