Your child is able to get WIC up until the age of 5, the income really LOL we make about 33,000 a year, live in North Dakota and have a household size of 6 and we are able to get WIC. BUT we do not get any other type of assitance including food stamps. We only get WIC. Call your local health department and they will answer your questions. I love having WIC its provided our kids with so much milk and such its absolutly wonderful, and its there to help. Goodluck :)

Answer 3

I'm in MIchigan and since its a federal thing we'll go with that. WIC depends on the age of the child. I think it is age five. I was on it years ago. The income would be based on the federal guidelines of Food Stamps.

Answer 4

You can apply and stay on WIC from pregnancy to your child's 5th birthday. You have to make under 19000 a year for one kid, and it goes up for each child.

WIC gets you formula, cereal, juice, milk, cheese, eggs, peanut butter or dried peas or beans, tuna and carrots. Walmart has WIC labels under everything accepted by the program.

If you live near Springfield, contact the Community Partnership. They know about many programs.

Answer 5

Why the hell did you have kids if you can't afford them? Now U.S. taxpayers are forced to pay for your stupidity.
