Does the RMP Allow SNAP Beneficiaries To Purchase McDonald’s?

The RMP is a state option that allows certain SNAP beneficiaries to buy prepared foods at restaurants with their SNAP benefits. The U.S. Department of Agriculture says that eligible individuals are typically those who might not be able to prepare meals for themselves or who do not have permanent housing to prepare or store food. To be eligible for RMP, you must qualify for SNAP in a state that has an RMP, which is Arizona, California, Maryland, Michigan, Rhode Island and Virginia, and all members of the household must be either:

Age 60 or older

Disabled

Homeless

The spouse of a SNAP client who is eligible for the RMP

RMP-eligible individuals may purchase food at a McDonald’s using their SNAP benefits if the restaurant is in a state that has RMP, has approval from the state and was authorized by the Food and Nutrition Service to accept SNAP benefits.

Can You Use TANF Benefits at McDonald’s?

The TANF program gives grant funds to states and territories to provide families with financial assistance and other support services. To qualify for TANF benefits, you must be a U.S. citizen, legal alien or qualified alien, reside in the state you applied and be unemployed or underemployed with low or very low income. One of the following must also be true:

Have a child age 18 or younger

Be pregnant

Be 18 years of age or younger and the head of your household

Can I still get Social Security in college?

No. At one time, SSA did pay benefits to college students, but the law changed in 1981. We now pay benefits only to students taking courses at grade 12 or below.

ssa.gov - Students - SSA

You must tell SSA if you:

Marry;

Stop attending school;

Reduce your attendance below full-time;

Are paid by your employer to attend school;

Change schools; or

Are convicted of a crime.

You must also let us know if:

You move or change your mailing address; and/or

Your estimated earnings from work change.

Notify SSA by calling or visiting your local Social Security office; by calling our toll-free number, 1-800-772-1213 (TTY 1-800-325-0778); or by mailing a completed form SSA-1383 to your local Social Security office. Your local office may have given you this form or you may have received one in the mail when you became entitled to student benefits.
