Hello. My husband recently got laid off of work. We have been collecting food stamps for the last couple of months now. Will this affect us any when we file for our federal refund at the beginning of next year? Thank you.

According to this Q & A, the food stamps are not taxed by the IRS. So they shouldn't affect your filing in any way.
I'd check with your case worker (if any) for confirmation.

you have the month which you get carry of the money and the month after to spend it. you're in elementary terms allowed to have a entire of $2000 in factors to proceed to be eligible for nutrition stamps. Ask your worker if there are any factors she/he's already counting against you. you do no longer want evidence of what you spend your return on yet you do ought to jot down a well-known assertion alongside with: I gained $4000 from the IRS on 2/2/2010. I spend $1000 on hire, $1500 fixing my motor vehicle, $1000 on fixtures, $1000 on outfits, $500 nutrition and private products. I surely have $500 left. Then sign and date the letter. you will additionally ought to furnish evidence of the money you acquire like a duplicate of the verify or a duplicate of your tax return. If the worker suspects fraud she will ask for receipts so be as honest as possible. it is not any longer required to be pronounced as earnings even though it is had to be pronounced as a source. workers are experienced to seek for the refund this time of 12 months.
